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.

Brown Hair Ante-Bellum Wig!
From the seller:
An extremely rare 1850’s real hair wig. The full head wig was originally worn by Rosa Perigo Fales. Every bit of this wig is made of real braided hair. The front has small pin curls that frame the face. The back has four large rolled curls. The wig is made of very dark brown hair. It is in very good condition. Some of the side pin curls are unraveling. These types of wig are rarely seen on the open market and this one is magnificent. This is not a wearable wig and is for the serious collector. Also listed in a separate auction is her black straw bonnet that came with the wig.
From Me:
This is so cool! Wear this over a nice short but curly pixie cut and you are good to go!

Women are so complicated and they have a lot of issue concerning their looks and I think as their partner we should provide them what they need than to argue.
