Girls’ Patterns, 1926
May 13, 2012 § 1 Comment
In my collection of Twenties patterns I have a group of children’s patterns that are shown in the McCall’s Quarterly for Winter 1926-27. (Many thanks to Debby for sharing the images.) I noticed something interesting about the envelope engravings. Observe:
McCall 4666 by Lina Mouton (1926) Girl’s ensemble.
McCall 4666 by Lina Mouton (1926) Younger girl’s ensemble.
Special engravings for the smaller sizes! Here’s another example from my collection:
McCall 4640 by Mignapouf (1926) Girl’s coat.
McCall 4640 by Mignapouf (1926) Younger girl’s coat.
Have you seen this on children’s patterns from other decades?
Happy Mother’s Day!
