The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent condition, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments!
This easy-to-read story of the how and why of clothes will fascinate young and old alike.
From bearskin to woolen cloth, to silks and satins–
From primitive mothers sewing animal skins together with bone needles and deer sinews, to the whirr of machines in modern factories–
From drab clothes of utility to colorful clothes adorned with embroidery–this interesting history of clothing is graphically illustrated with amusing and authentic illustrations.
