VINTAGE MASTEX :: 3-PLY BONDED NYLON

BACK TO ALL NYLONS > OTHER NYLON #18 & BEAD CORD > C-LON :: TUFF :: BEADSMITH :: CONSO :: D&E

A rare find, some Vintage Mastex Nylon #18 thread, circa 1990-2004, all on the tall black plastic spools. The quantities are limited as this thread is no longer manufactured. Some colors may have been private label colors as they were not Mastex stock colors. See notes on colors. The quality of this thread is excellent. Quantities indicated when smaller than 10. Samples available upon request.

Personal Note :: I am so excited to have these colors available. They just arrived (May 8, 2009). I unpacked, sorted all the colors, I restocked my shelves and already have used some of these colors (I had a head start as I received samples earlier). I am in love with Cognac and Mahogany. Cognac, Mahogany and Maple are new colors for me as they were not available from Mastex directly... A mystery. I was familiar with Cognac from a sample sent by a customer. It really is the topsy turvey world of thread...

165 yd - 150 m - 2 oz - Thread Ø 0.5mm - Z Twist - Made in the USA - 5 spools max. for Flat Rate Mail envelopes
