Nylon stockings were invented by Du Pont in the late 1930s and first sold in the USA in 1940.
Nylon stockings were manufactured on huge Reading machines - some up to 60 feet long and 12 tons in weight.
With 16,000 needles per machine they need constant attention and can take 1 hour to produce only 30 stocking legs.
The peak period for nylon stockings was 1950 to 1965.
