Question Title Can a post-1945 handmade clothing item that was sewn at home and thus never originally had a manufacturer's label be listed?

Vintage Clothing & Accessories Lane requirements in regards to vintage clothing do not state that every post-1945 item must have a manufacturer's label, but rather that listings for post-1945 'manufactured' clothing, shoes or accessories must include clearly readable images of the 'manufacturer's' original labels.

If an item never had a label of any kind because it was custom or 'homemade' and meets the 20 years or older age requirement for hand made items, it can be listed in the Vintage Clothing & Accessories Lane. The reason no labels are shown should be mentioned in the item description.

If a post-1945 item was originally made with labeling, but those original manufacturer's labels have been removed, the item would not qualify to be listed in the Vintage Clothing & Accessories Lane.
