Collector Van Sittert Gathers 175 Pitchers Since 1870
Mrs Van Sittert built a six year collection of 175 glass pitchers starting with a 1870 Roman Rosette pitcher bought in an antique shop. Most are pressed glass with rare blown pieces, including a Civil War Lincoln Drape and Stars and Stripes designs. She travels to St Louis twice yearly for finds and values the display for entertaining and conversation.

New true white finish boosts fiberglass curtain whiteness
June Brown of Iowa State College Extension Home Furnishings reports a new finish for fibreglass curtains improves whiteness strength and soil resistance. Initially used on marquisette, a modification may adapt it to heavier fabrics. The finish is billed as the first true white coating for fiberless marquisette and enhances fabric durability.

Fiberglass curtains resist sun moisture and stretch
Fiberglass yarns stay intact and do not rot under sun or moisture and show no sagging. They remain crisp and clean longer and launder without stretching. For best wear avoid contact with furniture edges and window sills and avoid rubbing during washing.
