Between the Covers

Unbound. Plastic advertising sign. Measuring 25" x 10½". Printed in purple and orange on white glossy plastic. Punch holes in upper margin for hanging. A little rubbing and a couple of tiny scratches, else about fine. [with]: Three pairs of unworn jeans still with the Landlubber tags attached. Unsized but they appear to be of a size intended for "tweens": older children and/or young teenagers. The design of the three pairs of straight leg jeans include innovative patchwork, likely inspired by the DIY alterations made by teenagers to their jeans: two pair with different panels in two shades of white, the other pair are pinstriped blue jeans with lighter blue insets sewn in. Evocative of the early '70s.
