From Milliken Gardens catalog, 1945: MANILA (Milliken). A clear uniform light yellow shaped somewhat like the nose of an airplane but not so large. We do not care to say much about its size for we fear we should be accused of being too near Hollywood. It is shapely, firm, and well--large. 2 feet to 2-1/2 feet. $5.00; 3 for $12.50 |
From Milliken Gardens catalog, 1948: MANILA (Milliken). A clear uniform light yellow of very pleasing shape. It is firm, large, and early. It has proved itself one of the most popular of our many yellows. $1.50; 3 for $3.75 |
