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.

Plaid 1890's Bodice
From the seller:
Slightly too small for my display form--- couple Moth holes here and there-- and a bit dirty-- maybe for a girl aged 9/10/11 -- no bones - 21 inch waist-- 26/27 inch bust
From me:
I agree - most likely a "Young Miss" bodice and not for a grown woman.
