Preserved in its original 15¢ yellow-and-red paper band, this authentic mid-century Dennison Crepe Paper fold features a truly unique vintage transformation. Because this was packaged in its original box, it is still quite colorful, but does show some patina. The color has changed dramatically over time and it's no longer violet, but we love the gorgeous taupe that it has now become.  

Made in the 1940s to early 1950s before the transition to plastic packaging, this paper-band stock is renowned among paper flower artists and ephemera purists for its distinct sizing formula, deep creping grain, and rich weight. Muted earthy tones from this early era are remarkably hard to find in clean condition, making this a fantastic piece for specialized paper sculpting or vintage displays.

  • Brand: Dennison Manufacturing Co. (Framingham, Mass.)

  • Era: 1940s–1950s Paper Band Era

  • Color: Taupe (aged from historic Violet)

  • Dimensions: 20 inches wide by 7.5 feet long

  • Features: Original yellow "Flameproof Crepe Paper / Extra Strong" printed paper wrapper (15¢ original price marked)

  • Condition: Unused old store stock with authentic soft vintage patina along the outer edges

  • Packing: This is genuine un-bagged mid-century stock.

Safety Note: While the band states "Flameproof," please treat this as decorative vintage paper only and keep away from open flames due to age. To preserve the original vintage fold, this item is stored and shipped flat in a protective box.
