Description

* Stunning 1950s firebox red silk satin commercially made dress

* Classic New Look silhouette with a cinched waist and full skirt

* Dress is sleeveless with an inset oval notched neckline panel which widens at the back to form a collar.

* Faux opening down the front of the dress with decorative self-fabric buttons

* Self-fabric bow just below the notched collar and princess seaming either side

* Skirt is very full with wonderful drape

* Low v-shaped back with collar 

* In-seam pocket on right-hand side of the dress

* Back metal zipper, pinked seams, turnover hem (unstitched)

* Label reads Jonny Herbert Originals

The Jonny Herbert label produced sophisticated, junior-sized quality day, cocktail and evening dresses. The company was registered by John Buffa and Herbert Aptel in 1950 as a division on Sealove-Becker, Inc. By 1954 the company had expanded into the Midwest with a sales office in Chicago. Aptel later left the company but Buffa managed it until his death in 1973. I have not been able to track more detailed history of the company, although I must add that over the years I have owned a number of dresses from this label, and seen many more, and all are high quality, beautifully made and designed.

 

Condition 

Excellent. 

No notable flaws that I can see -  a sliver of thread can be seen on a couple of seams and stitching on hem a tad untidy but not visible at all from the front.

Please note that these are vintage items that have been used and loved over the years, As such, they may display slight evidence of their age. Any notable flaws above and beyond this will be highlighted here.

 

Comment 

Simply gorgeous dress with some fabulous design details that really make it stand apart from the rest. One of the best Jonny Herbert dresses I have had the pleasure of owning. Please drop us a line if you require additional information about this listing.

Engine air filters are important!
Size: 8.26" x 5.63" x 2.24"
Just like me and you breathing, your car performs better when it can breathe freely and cleanly. My philosophy with an engine air filter is to replace with cheap and often. You can't control the quality of air coming into your system but you can control the filtering, so I'd rather replace the filter on an accelerated schedule with a cheap product than to invest into something more expensive and have it perform dirty for longer than it should. For my Honda CRV 2024 Hybrid, this filter fits snuggly and performs well.

Good non OEM replacement filter
Size: 165465NA1C
I recently purchased the Forccord 2-Pack Engine Air Filter for my INFINITI QX50 (2025/2024-2019) and QX55 (2025/2024-2022), and overall, it’s a decent alternative to the OEM filter. Pros: Perfect Fit – Installed easily in my QX50 without any issues. Fits just like the factory filter. Good Filtration – The material seems effective in trapping dust and debris, helping keep the engine clean. Affordable 2-Pack – Great value compared to dealership prices, especially if you replace filters regularly. Improves Airflow – Noticed a slight improvement in engine responsiveness and fuel efficiency. Cons: Not OEM Quality – The filter material feels a bit thinner and less sturdy compared to the original Infiniti filter. May Not Last as Long – While it works fine now, I’m unsure if it will hold up for the same mileage as an OEM filter. No Installation Instructions – Though easy to install, a simple guide would have been helpful for first-time users. Final Thoughts This Forccord air filter is a good budget-friendly replacement that fits well and performs decently. However, if you prioritize OEM durability and quality, you may want to stick with the original Infiniti filter.
