Zip Codes were introduced in 1963; I believe the postal codes included in the addresses (ie Chicago 30, Illinois) were begun in the 1940s. The term "rayon" wasn't used until 1924 and I don't think the government required fabric content labeling until the early sixties. I think the LSU banner dates to the early sixties.
I was thinking 50's. I was hoping some one had some info on the company, when were they located at the addresses above.

So far, I have seen three addresses, Cottage Grove Ave, West 87th St, and now yours, 61st St.
