I'm dating myself but I can remember when most spools were wooden...the transition was just beginning.

I love the old stuff and imagine the people that might have used it. I'm a romantic with a vivid imagination. Good find:-)

I agree, it looks from the 70's.

My Mom used to carry one of those kits in her purse back in the 70's. It was handy if you lost a button or had a rip in your clothing.
