| Description | A pair of Seamfree mesh nylon stockings, circa 1960s, in the original illustrated packet. The packet proudly announces the fact that the stockings have no seam, a fashion in hosiery which was slow to be adopted as they were considered reminiscent of bare legs which were thought to be unsightly in the early post war years. The stockings have a shaped foot and are in 'Sun Tan' flesh colour. | |
