Fashion Frocks, Inc Dress Manufacturers were based out of Cincinnati Ohio and was in business from the 1920's to the 1970's. Housewives would be provided these sales kits and would essentially become door to door salespersons for the company.

With the exception of a couple of these cards, they are in near mint condition. I do have the original folder that holds the entire kit but it is really bad shape. The envelopes and booklets do have some moisture stains.

The 9x12 cards have absolutely beautiful color illustrations with fabric swatches attached. On the back of the cards are the complete descriptions of the garments and fabrics, sizing info and price.

Style numbers included are:
