Légende
Square handkerchief made from nylon gauze in a pink tone. The color has an ombre effect on the diagonal. A black manufacturer's tag is sewn along the hem near one corner that reads: "ANOTHER HIT / 100% NYLON / RN 31762 / MADE IN JAPAN". Mae Reeves (1912-2016) was a pioneering African-American milliner who was famous for her custom-made hats. Her business, Mae's Millinery Shop in downtown Philadelphia, was one of the first shops in the city to be owned by a woman of African American heritage.
