The nicest way to give her your love

Mother’s Day May 15th.

Bates exquisite "Anniversary" coverlets reproduce faithfully the rare puffed patterns of 19th century counterpanes. These are heirlooms in their own right,  loomed to last even longer than the originals padded and stitched by hand. "Anniversary" bedspreads are made only by Bates, and only in very limited quantity. Permanently puffed, pre-shrunk, perfectly washable. In antique white only, beautifully presented in a special gift box. Like everything Bates makes, these are the best value you can buy! Bates Fabrics, Inc., 80 Worth Street, New York 13.
