Catalogue : Spring and Summer : of silks, dress goods, cloths, millinery (etc.)
A spring and summer merchandise catalogue issued by the New York department store Lord & Taylor in 1882, offering silks, dress goods, cloths and millinery to its retail customers. The pictures are fine pen-and-ink fashion engravings of women's bustled dresses, a lace-trimmed bodice, and a checked coat with pleated hem, showing cut, trim and ruffle layering that a designer could borrow for period costume or pattern work.
