It Hooks, and Locks!

There is a problem with snaps.  They don't always hold like they should, especially under pressure.  This could become quite embarrassing when it was your skirt placket and your undergarments began to show.  What would people think?  Hooks and eyes were not much better, especially when they have become mangled from ironing and washing.

Wilson's Patent Fastener to the rescue!  This little item was guaranteed not to fail.

It came on a card inside an envelope and is one of my treasures from the early years of the 20th century.
