This Day in History: 1948-07-08
The Singer Sewing Center in Ridgewood advertised in the Ramsey Journal a series of eight sewing lessons, two hours each for girls between 10 and 16. “No need wishing for beautiful summer clothes when you can make them so easily in these special vacation courses”, the ad promised. The price with individualized instruction guaranteed was eight dollars for the complete series. (Bristow)
