1830's Corset!

From the seller:

I am selling with NO RESERVE an early American corset from the 1830s (this is according to Karen Augusta, owner of Augusta Auction Co., Bellows Falls, Vt, who saw the same photo I have posted here). Augusta is the premier auction house in North America for historic costume, couture and vintage fashion
What makes this corset really special is that it has fancy details on the front and even the signature of the owner -- Eliza Southard
The fancy details consist of two beautiful designs. Each is repeated twice -- side by side, one pattern on top of the other. Each is 5 inches in length. Together, they cover more than half of the corset's length
At its shortest point, the corset is 14-1/2" long. When completely unfolded, the corset is 23" wide
My mother purchased this corset from an antique dealer in New Hampshire approximately 50 years ago. She donated a similar corset to the Brooklyn Museum
I know nothing about clothing or vintage clothing, but am happy to try to answer any and all questions (please see 2 questions from viewers below). And please excuse my very poor photography skills
The corset seems to be in very condition for its ago, with no defects that are visible to an untrained eye (that would be me).

Q: Hi! Can you send the picture with the back of corset und can you please tell me the measurements. Many Thanks, Larissa May-13-16
A: Hi Larissa, Many thanks for your interest and for taking the time to send a question. At its shortest point, the corset is 14-1/2" long When it is completely unfolded, the corset is 23" wide I just added a couple of photos Please let me know if there is anything else you would like My apologies to everyone for doing such a poor job listing this item. I have sold over 10,000 items on ebay in 15+ years, but never an article of clothing. The only reason I am selling this item is that it belonged to my mom Thank you Ken
Q: the 2 breast gores seems to be made of a stiff material. can you add some pictures, like from the back and hanging from a coat hanger? these picture do the corset no justice. thanks, dirk-jan May-13-16
A: Many thanks for your interest and for taking the time to write. I have taken 2 additional photos that I hope will help a bit. Please let me know if there is anything else you would like, and I apologize for my very poor photo skills Ken

From Me:
