This pair of very old tap panties is in good condition for its age. There are a few small holes near the top hem, but otherwise little signs of stress to the fabric and it is still very much wearable. The fabric itself appears to be a rayon.

Closing to the side with two tiny pearlescent, shell buttons and bearing an original label (that reads, simply, “19”), this is a lovely, feminine period piece that would make a great gift for a bride-to-be.

These measure: ~32” waist (circumference), ~17.5” Length (at centre); leg openings 29” (circumference).

Purchased as part of a collection from an American estate.
