This is a place for any extant garments in private collections from about 1941 back. There is no beginning date. The only rule is that it can't be currently in a museum and must be before the bombing of Pearl Harbor. I mostly post items I've seen on ebay, etsy, or other auction sites so we will continue to have a record of them for research purposes. If you have antique clothing in your collection, please, email me pictures of them and I will gladly add them to this site.

Turn of the Century Salesman's Display Corset
From the seller:
Gorgeous antique salesman sample or doll corset. 19 1/2 cm x 22 cm. Sold in as is condition. The fabric is silk satin, as well as the trimming. The lining is cotton.
From Me:
I *think* this is more towards the 1890's than anything else but I could be wrong.
