W. J. Mahon's catalogs for men's fashions (Spring & Summer, 1904)
A 1904 spring and summer men's fashion catalogue issued by the W. J. Mahon firm, presenting tailored clothing for men in plates labelled for day dress, business wear and sporting outfits. The plates are pen-and-ink style fashion drawings of suited men in top hats, bowlers, caps and riding boots, set against park and street backdrops. A designer could draw on their tailored silhouettes, the layered coats and waistcoats, and the early twentieth-century menswear details such as knickerbockers, walking sticks and gaiters.
