Vintage Spool & Hand Carved Clothes Pin

Set of two items:

1. a vintage one-piece wooden clothespin, also known as a dolly peg, which pre-dates the spring-loaded wire versions common today. It has a rounded top and a split lower portion for gripping laundry on a clothesline.
2. a small wooden spool of vintage Coats & Clark's "Boilfast" thread.The thread spool is a collectible item that indicates its age; most wooden spools were discontinued in the early 1970s. The "Boilfast" label on the spool signifies the thread's colorfastness and durability, meaning it could withstand being boiled during washing without the color running.
