This excellent book will be going to EBay in the near future unless any FL members wish to make me an offer beforehand?
This is a hardback copy of ‘The Cutters’ Practical Guide to Ladies’ Tailoring, 10th edition’, written by WDF Vincent and published by The John Williamson Company Ltd. in London. The book comprises 164 pp. and prelims. Profusely illustrated with line drawings, period photographs and cutting plans. It has been well used (I bought it together with some of the Tailor and Cutters' guide to gentlemen's clothing from my tailor when he retired) and so there is some wear to binding and edges, some light foxing to pages is evident, but this does not detract from this fine book.
There is a very evocative entry detailing the contents of an earlier example of this excellent resource at http://ubiquitousingenious.blogspot.com/
Please P.M. me if interested.
