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.

Late 18th Century Men's Waistcoat
From the seller:
A early gentleman' silk waistcoat with Beauvais embroidery.
Item Measurements:
Item condition:
In mainly good strong condition, there is one 2" tear at side of vest..otherwise age related spots.spots on inner lining..All items we list need to be cleaned.
From Me:
No measurements, unfortunately, with this one. It's similar in overall shape to this once at LACMA. The collar, the length, and the straight bottom edge are all very similar. This waistcoat is most likely from the earlier part of the 1790's.
