Once again a huge thanks to Fulton History.

Ads are from the January 1, 1951 Courier Express newspaper.

The Berger’s Ad? Yup those are 1951 prices. I love the Berger’s logo.

I’m drooling. Now the only department type store that sells fabric is Walmart. Yeah, not much of a selection there…

Remember when department stores sold sewing machines? Me neither. J.N. Adams had an entire White Sewing machine department.

I think Portable should be in quotes. I can barely carry my 35 year old sewing machine, I don’t event try with the 50 year old “portable”. Machines in 1951 were made of metal. Heavy metal.
