From the 1960's I remember Kleinerts adult panties, a translucent white very smooth from 1964 to 1970. I found Carlyn's Kids in about 1982 and she had several kinds a grainy translucent, a smooth translucent and an opaque kind that were smooth on one side and grainy on the other. Then I found DPF in 83 and Comco. In the mid 1980's there was a kind of AB club out of CT that had Gary do their work for them but those weren't that good and tended to come apart at the seams, which kind of soured me on Gary for awhile, but that has changed and they're #1 for me. Also in the mid 1980's was a company out of MN called Wold that made panties out of a transparent material that was grainy on one side and smooth on the other. Sears was ove uneven quality. and there was the Salk Pro-Pant. In the early 1990's I found AC Medical under the name Agape. They make all kinds of panties and then they started dabbling in skirts and finally full-circle skirts when I started to mention them. They also liked my concept of the baby doll. In 2013 when Comco went OB I started looking for a substitue while keeping mum and then I found LL Medico and totally surprised everyone here with the news. I was not impressed with Babykins plastic panties because of the somewhat grainy material and the rather close fit, but the rubber ones are top of the line and very Middle 1950's childrens' . You can see my reviews which evaluate both as an incon product and an AB item. I did not like the Gerber as they were grainy when I saw them and do not bother with Gerber clones. Also in the mid 1980's there was a place in the mid-west call Tom's Plastic Pats, advertised in the DPF/nl. The service was abysmally slow and the product, called Nuvogue were very thin, quite transparent, and fell apart, tearing at the leg elastics. In the middle 1980', Jack Kowels had JK perfect personal products that had all kind so of things. Their best items were rubber panties, rubber shets and they made a rubber babydoll. all in heavy gauge rubber and in colors ivory, blue, yellow and little-girl PINK. I would like to find more to review. I wonder if there are still any Comco for sale anywhere, My standard of value are the ones Ihad in 1948 or 9 that I have described, the material was smooth and in retrospect, fairly thick but they were not soft and the color was a a translucent ecru or the like. In c1957 the little girl next door had in her sewing kit a pair of yellow snap-on baby panties that were starting to become hardened and resembled what a pair of LL Medico would be if they were dyed corn yellow, which seems pquite possible to do since the Gary 7 mil material is quite thick and could stand one or two hot water immersions. Comco could be dyed. I still have some of my old A C Meidcal skirts that must be 18 years old. If you want to see some ancient baby panty material look here http://other.sandralyn.net/panties.html
