Vintage Linen Cocktail Napkins Never Three

A rare set of six vintage appliqued cocktail napkins with a popular theme from WWII.  “Never Three” implied that the third soldier on a lighted match was unlucky. Embroidered and appliqued on very fine linen with shadow work around the edge, these little napkins exhibit the finest of handwork. Each napkin measures 5” X 8”, and all six are in very good vintage condition – clean, with no holes or stains. One cigarette has a different tip – yellow, not orange (as found).  What a great set to add to a collection.
