About this object

Twenty four off-white damask hand towels. The towels have a bobbin lace trim in tape work with an inset of bobbin lace. Above the inset is embroidered the Post crest. The only difference between these towels and 45.345 appears to be the color and perhaps their location. These are from a box designating them as "2 dozen guest towels for the museum"
