Default For the ones not knowing what carders were...
[ATTACH=CONFIG]405720[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]405721[/ATTACH] These belonged to my mother...she used them in the 40's and 50's to card the cotton...(that she picked) to take out the seeds..so she could use the cotton in her quilts...Hard work...I have these on display in my sewing room...they are priceless...I remember her doing this...
