Sighting: TWA napkins still in the world's linen services
I was at brunch today in Manhattan, at Markt, and at the end of the meal noticed that one of my companion's napkins had a small, faded, inch-wide, TWA logo in the lower left corner. Though I was never a TWA flyer, it was still a bit nostalgic, I must say.

Nerd, did you grab the napkin? Probably worth a few $$’s on Ebay from the TWA nostalgia crowd...

Maybe someday I'll sell my uniform and Tiffany wings on ebay (along with blankets my inlaws keep giving me and amenity kits) if I can ever bear to part with them. The Paris bookinistes(sp?) have some great vintage posters too.
