Claire Tilden 242 and 500 - 1936

Claire Tilden 242 housedress and 500 back-wrap housedress from 1936.

This was a mail-order line and the packet design and artwork look like it might have been another nameplate by the Marian Martin/Anne Adams/sometimes American Weekly parent company. 

So far all the Claire Tildens I've found have three-digit numbers. It looks like it started with 100s in 1936 and ran through the 900s, then restarted with 100s and ran until 1942.

I see some designs that I'm convinced I've also seen as Anne Adams and Marian Martin, but I have to track those down to compare.
