<P>Gorgeous 1930's/40's printed pajamas or leisure suit.
<P>These are in very good and wearable condition. They have never been worn as you can tell because the sash (belt) has never been unstitched to be used!

<P>The top and bottom are light and royal blue with a printed pattern of a large floral design. The top has a folded down collar and two Asian style hook and eye knot closures. The back of the top features French knot embroidery as the part of the center of the flower. The pants have an flat front waist and an elastic back waist. The tag in the top reads: "The Orient Los Angeles, Long Beach, Hollywood, Made in Japan."

<P>These vintage printed pajama sets are hard to come by in this kind of wearable condition. As you can tell these have been stored away for quite some time because there is no fading.

<P>These pajamas are from the estate of Frank Rivers, manager of the Majestic Theater (Chicago) during its hayday from 1900-1930. Mr. Rivers was also a very famous Vaudeville stage manager from the 20's through the 40's. His estate featured many high end items as would be expected from a wealthy Chicago socialite of his time. His estate has been in storage for the last 40 years and was only recently opened.

<P>Condition: There are a few spots the size of a pin head on the pants. The shirt/jacket has a soil line across it where the item was obviously once folded. There are no rips, tears or snags.These have not been laundered since being discovered.

<P>Size: ...
