Scarecrow Posted April 22, 2022 Share #1 Posted April 22, 2022 Thought I'd show a recent acquisition of mine, a real "Rosie The Riveter" denim shirt and coveralls. Came with her "E" For Excellence pin and a Pratt & Whitney shoulder patch. Unfortunately it is not named. The head scarf is a reproduction. I've also added this to the Rosie The Riveter thread in "Women Services". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottG Posted April 23, 2022 Share #3 Posted April 23, 2022 Love the shirt and coveralls, living down the road from the Yankee Air Museum makes me despise the bandana thing... They have "tribute Rosies" and are a so militant about the dress that it undermines the actual history. My Grandmother worked in a diamond tool plant and did not like the name "Rosie the Riveter," she said she had to have a clearance to work with the diamonds, and in her southern accent "weren't no dang riveter". A very unique and rare find you have, great display! Scott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
