229.0. "Bizzare info. request" by IDE::ALTER () Wed May 11 1988 13:45

Once upon a time, I saw in the ads in one of the swankier mens
magazines (Penthouse?) an ad for a service that I've decided that I've
got a need for :-)

I think it was from one of the lingerie firms; it offered a
'panty-of-the-month' club, whereby they would send the light of your
life a panty each month from their (presumed substantial) offerings.

Now that I want to check this out, I can't find the reference.  I
don't keep old Penthouses, or even get it very often.  I went out and
bought a good selection of this months magazines of that sort
(depressing) but I didn't have any luck.

Does this ring a bell somewhere?  Can anyone give me a pointer?
--Boy, is this ever a long shot!--

There is a Fredricks of Hollywood in Natick or Framingham Mass,
why don't you call them and ask if they do this?

229.3GNUVAX::BOBBITTshowtime, Synergy...Mon May 16 1988 11:017
    Undercover Wear primarily does home parties, last I checked...
    
    of course, why use a go-between....the best gifts are sent by the
    loved one, eh?

229.4Frederick's of HollywoodATPS::GREENHALGEMouseMon May 16 1988 13:549
    
    Fredericks of Hollywood did have a store at the mall off Exit 39
    of Route 128.  Not sure if it's still there.

    BTW - The Frederick of Hollywood catalogs and the stores are run
    by two different agencies.  One is a totally separate business from
    the other.
229.5FraminghamOBLIO::QUEBECMon May 16 1988 14:004
    There is (or was) a Frederick's of Hollywood in the Lechmere mall
    in Framingham.  It wouldn't hurt to call.

    line of clothing. If anyone would like more info feel free to send

      "PANTY OF THE MONTH CLUB".WHY NOT GIVE THEM A CALL AND ASK IF
      THEY KNOW AND CAN GIVE YOU THE ADDRESS TO WRITE TO OR ANY INFORMATION
