I had posted about some fabric I found with a KMart tag on it http://forum.missouriquiltco.com/gen...last-past.html
some of the reminiscing from other posters got me to thinking also. We lived in the city limits and I remember taking the bus with my mother to downtown where there was a huge department store called GC Murphy's. I remember her buying fabric there. Anybody remember the "Measuregraphs"???? The clerks would run the fabric through it and it measured it. When it got to the amount that you wanted, the clerk would push a button and it would put a cut in the fabric. The clerk would then be able to rear the fabric.
