Garment Hanger, patented 1917

A charming set of three antique garment hangers, made in 1917 by the Modelo Garment Hanger Co., featuring two children - a boy and a girl - and a young woman. These early 20th‑century vintage clothing hangers display the warm, nostalgic character typical of pre‑1920s American design. Each hanger shows gentle age wear, including light stains, creases, and a few small tears, all consistent with more than a century of use. Not perfect, but remarkably well‑preserved for items over 100 years old, and full of authentic period charm.

Because of their size, patina, and expressive illustrations, these antique 1917 hangers are ideal for displaying antique clothing, museum pieces, or heirloom garments. They are also perfect for sellers or collectors who want to use historically accurate props for photography, cataloguing, or visual merchandising. As decorative objects, they offer a delightful glimpse into early 20th‑century domestic life and remain highly collectible today.
