About This Item
New York, 1877. Good.. 31,[1]pp. Folio. Original orange pictorial wrappers. Light wear and soiling, some minor loss to wrappers. Text toned, slight biopredation to final leaf. A lovely catalogue of patterns for clothing of all types issued by E. Butterick & Co. The catalogue opens with styles for ladies' coats and dresses, moving on to wraps and jackets, then skirts and tops, followed by essentials such as bloomers and corsets and aprons and chemises. There is a section of clothing for "Misses and Girls," as well as doll patterns, children's clothing, and "Boys and Gentlemen." Menswear includes everything from smoking jackets and caps to overalls and kneebreeches. The rear cover advertises Singer Sewing Machines, which received numerous awards at the Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia the previous year. The front cover notes agents for Singer machines in Galveston, Texas, pinpointing the distribution area for the present catalogue. An excellent source for fashions of the period.
