Stolen Sweaters at large in Europe! (1962 print ads)
Stolen Sweaters you say?!? Alert Interpol!
Oh, no wait - - okay, I get it.
Helen Harper sweaters made of 'Acrilan' acrylic fibers manufactured by Chemstrand (a division of Monsanto), and fashioned to look like authentic regional garb from Ireland, Greece, Austria, Spain, England and Portugal.
This series of advertisements ran in the August, 1962 issue of Seventeen magazine.
As staged as these international location shoots were, it could have been interesting to see the 'outtakes' from these photo sessions...
