Latest treasures

I'm already having a bit of a week for charity shop/thrift store finds.
  I do not need hook and eyes right now but I found this packet when rummaging in a basket of buttons on the bottom shelf of the household section of the Sue Ryder shop in Hersham centre this morning.
  The joy I am deriving from this 95p would puzzle my long-suffering husband. It's the desig of the display card - the fonts, the colours, the no-nonsense style.

  So how old is it? When I shuffled it about a bit and the hooks and eyes moved to the top, I could see that Neweys were By Appointment to Their Majesties The Queen and Queen Mary! I have spent more time than I should figuring out that this dates the pack between 1936 (when George VI became king) and 1953 when Queen Mary (his mother) died.
  I have a mass of stuff to do so I have abandoned my dating quest right there...
  In the meantime I can't bring myself to store my pack of hook and eyes somewhere logical. I need to look at it.. maybe that's why my workspace is such a mess?
