History: "Maid of Honor" clothespin bags are iconic, vintage household items, most notably produced and sold by Sears, Roebuck and Co. as part of their housewares line during the mid-20th century, particularly in the 1940’s through the 1960s. These bags were designed to hold wooden or early plastic clothespins and featured a sturdy metal hook, allowing them to slide along a clothesline while the user hung laundry. The “Maid of Honor” brand was a proprietary name used by Sears for a wide variety of kitchen and laundry products.
