W. J. Mahon's catalogs for men's fashions (Spring & Summer, 1907)

W.J. Mahon (Firm) · 1907 · 9 pictures

A 1907 spring and summer catalogue of men's fashions issued by the W. J. Mahon firm, presenting tailored suits and coats to male customers. The illustrations show standing male figures in black and grey suits, double-breasted jackets, top hats, bowlers and straw boaters, often with canes and a rear view of the same garment. A designer could take the crisp pencil-and-wash tailoring, the strong vertical stance of the figures, and the period silhouettes of formal menswear.
