RARE 1960S SEWING LOT~ 7 WOOD SPOOLS w Thread COATS CLARK & VTG BUTTONS ON CARDS

Description

Welcome to our listing for a
LOT of SEVEN (7) VINTAGE Wood Spools with various colors and types of threads AND 29 vintage buttons IN SETS (they are on 5 ORIGINAL CARDS (VARIOUS COLORS/STYLES)
, with fun styling and shapes!  The yellow button ones have a flowery/rope style design, the other yellow ones have nice texture and distinctive design too, as does the bright green and shiny orange ones.  We think these date back to 1960/s/early 70s based on Grandma's sewing era.
Colors are very reminiscent of a different time~ WITH WOOD SPOOLS! Several are Coates & Clark, one is missing identifying stickers/info. and one (tallest spool) is Belding.  The smaller spools are Coates & Clark.
These are straight from another generation, right out of Grandma's sewing box.
These all had some use (seem to have a lot of thread left on the spools too), please ask questions if Listing doesn't mention information you need.
There are 7 spools in the LOT. Some are missing their stickers or parts thereof (long since fell off due to age), while others have the labels coming off or ripped in spots. Some have noted fading.  We have left them as we found them coming right out of her ancient sewing box.  The buttons are all attached to the original cards (super cool retro find), and are complete (except the round orange buttons have 6 buttons, missing the original 7th button on card labeled Pattern 1342 and made in Japan).  The other buttons cards say "Made in the USA."  The cards all have significant discoloration/staining from age, and some handwritten markings on them as well.
A fun fact: back in the day, the spools had a lot more yardage on them.
