I will be adding many items from my personal library collection of many many years. Most are about vintage fashion history or other collectibles.
1890 Book: Samantha Among The Brethern by Josiah Allen's Wife - Marietta Holley.
Ms Holley used her pen-name to write during a period where many women used other names for their written works. She wrote fictional stories with a feminist punch!
Hardcover - the binding of the covers is loose but attached - some glue would be appropriate
Red with gold gilding
8 x 6 1/2 x 1 1/2 inches
Inside name: Carrie A. Babbitt's Book
Copyright 1890 by Funk & Wagnalls Stationers' Hall, London, Eng.

The Kyoto Costume Institute, Fashion - A History from the 18th to the 20th Century is a treasure trove of amazing photographs showing not only costume changes over the decades but also exquisite detail. Any student of vintage clothing will love this book! Thick Book 700 pgs!! A book that just begs for a cup of coffee (or tea) and a casual sit down and relax moment.
