I neglected to comment on my first photo-Atomic Brand Sewing Needles. I love this packaging. It's the epitome of 1950s optimism in science and domesticity!
What this image has to do with sewing, I don't know. Are the needles radioactive or contain rocket fuel? There's a few of them inside, and they look normal. Maybe I should throw them away, before I start glowing at night.
This is one of my favorite package illustrations. The woman is so dainty sitting side saddle and I love that she has her purse with her-definitely needed in space. Overall, it's a bit Freudian, too.
Can't you just imagine that creative meeting? Right out of Mad Men!
