DRY-ME-DRY is a history of--and guide to--the remarkable Martex kitchen textile known as "the Amazing 3 Fibre Towel." Its patented cotton-rayon-linen blend became famous among American homemakers of the 1930s for lint-free absorption and speedy evaporation. In the 1950s, eye-popping graphics and a little marketing magic sealed their appeal. Decades later, these towels remain coveted by collectors for how modern they look and how well they work. DRY-ME-DRY is an essential reference work for collectors, dealers, and fans of vintage textiles and mid-century graphics.
