Changing the Muslin Cover & Pad – and misc

Posted by Jessica Kay Murray | Feb 4, 2018 | Misc. Ephemera | 0 |

Here are some miscellaneous papers found in the IronRite envelope. They include 2 illustrated instruction sheets on how to change the muslin cover, as well as some handwritten notes which seem to be instructions for oiling and making a starch solution for the machine. Also included in this set of scans is a hand typed sheet called “Steps to Perfection in Shirt Ironing”, with the IronRite St. Louis header.

Professional WordPress nerd. Lover of all things older than me. I am fascinated by early 1900s labor and feminist history, and have a sporadic addiction to reading nonfiction about those things on Archive.org. I scan old photographs and ephemera when I get really super bored. On Etsy I sell vintage clothing that I got as part of an interesting trade deal a few years ago.
