This vintage sewing kit with a Union Label was made in the United States and is a collectible item. It contains a variety of sewing accessories and has been partially used. The kit is a great addition to any collector's sewing collection and would make a wonderful gift for someone who enjoys sewing. With the ILGWU label, it is a testament to the quality and craftsmanship of American-made products. To freshen up the old thread could be removed and new thread could be added. There is a needle but no threader. Don't know if there was a threader. From a smoke free and pet free home. There is 1 or 2 little marks on the outside that could be removed with an eraser.
