Sterling Scissors
Was Gift Favourite
In Grandma's Day.
by Kathy O'Meara
What was tops on Grandma's Christmas
list? Maybe it was a pair of sterling silver
grape scissors for a mere $1.75 or, perhaps, a
ladies hat or bonnet duster, at $1.50. All of
these items were mounted with 925/100 fine
silver.
These are only a few of the popular gift
items offered to Canadians by the T. Eaton
CO. in its Christmas catalogue of 1897.
There are many intriguing bits of Can-
adiana recorded in this catalogue, the earliest
on record at Eaton's archives office in their
College Street store, in Toronto.
It offers quite a contrast to today's
glossy, high fashion, tinsel laden books. Its
pages have no colour, lists are plentiful, and it
offers no lengthy description of its contents.
On 'the cover we see the slogan of the
T. Eaton Co., "The Greatest Good to the Great-
est Number", and on their first page, an assort-
ment of items made of ;sterling silver. These
goods made favorite gifts.
• Knicknacks, such as button hooks and -
moustache combs, were guaranteed to please
Grandpa when he found them under the tree
on Christmas morning. Many a Victorian Miss
was thrilled to receive one of the "fine quality
feather fans, newest designs, fancy handles in
cream, pink, blue, mauve and black at $1.00".
For the children, there were fans in ostrich or
gauze.
Victorians had a box for everything.
Photo cases, work boxes, necktie boxes, glove
boxes and cuff and collar boxes — all made
welcome Christmas gifth. These were made of
celluloid, a "new" miracle synthetic in the
"90's," and were available in plain or fancy
styles.
Toys were as plentiful then as they are
now, and their price tags would be an answer
to a modern parent's prayer. Shoofly rockers
in ±h large size and of extra strong material
were only 60 cent4. Sleds, an ever popular
item, came in price range of 15 cents to 25
.cents each. Boys velocipedes, a type of bicycle,
were an expensive gift at $1.65. What child
could ask for a better gift, and, what parent
could wish for a more reasonable price list?
If expense was no object,' you could or -
.der one of the more lavish articles — a sofa
with mahogany finish, a full 41 'inches long
with silk tapestry covering the springs; at $13.
Clothe,s, fur.pieces and watches were as,
popular in the '90's as they are today, but other
gift selections reflect the Christi/lap' spirit of
a less cynical age. •Books, hymnals and Bible
bound in leather were an obvious Yuletide
choice with our Grandparents, to whom
Christ was an important part of. Christmas.
He was not someone who had to be "put back"
into the season.
Christmas catalogues have come a long
way since 1897, but those early mail order of-
ferings marked the beginning of a trend. The
days of personal gift shopping were in. too
many eases numbered, and would soon be re-
placed by the sterile, computerized mail order
system.of today. Even the hacppiest, holiest sea-
son of the year has paid the price .of progress.
