    Description

    This might be the last remaining bag of its type outside the Smithsonian! (It's on their website, just Google "Brown Grocery Bag: "Navy Wives. It's the Toughest Job in the Navy").
    I got this at the PX in Newport, Rhode Island around 1980 when grocery shopping with my aunt, who was married to a career Navy man. I found it fascinating and kept it. Today, 40 years later, it's a collector's item not available anywhere else that I could find.
