Vintage Sewing notions and pattern

My mama gave me a small bag of vintage sewing items she found while rummaging through the garage. She thought I might like them, and she was right, and I had to share. 

Red lace seam binding. I use this for finishing a hem on a skirt usually.

Vintage zippers. I prefer modern YKK ones but, these are pretty to look at.

There were a few vintage zippers still in the packages. I love the info on the zipper packaging. I love the 70s pattern too. The pattern insert is so easy and simple. Why can't patterns be as simple as they were back then? The back of the envelope is easy to read as well.
