Book Synopsis Rural Pennsylvania Clothing by : Ellen J. Gehret
Book excerpt: "This is a source-book to be used especially when making reproduction everyday rural clothing of the type worn in southeastern Pennsylvania, particularly between 1750 and 1820, by the farmer, the day laborer, the tradesman, their women-folk and children. Sewing instructions are derived from the measurement and analysis of Pennsylvania clothing of the period; the original garment is the only guide to use in making historically-accurate patterns."--Abstract, page [7]
