A Stunning Display of Color and Design greets the lucky pedestrian passing by this fine lady. Featured on page 173 https://goo.gl/NQKvMx of the Earl J. Arnold Advertising Collection 1885, the outfit is so distracting, I doubt many saw the advertising sign on the tree!

    Look at all the colors in that dress is it made from the flour sacks?

    Kathy Lind This is a guess. The dress was most likely made from bolts of cotton cloth purchased at a local "fancy goods" store sometime in the 1880s. en.wikipedia.org - Bolt (fabric) - Wikipedia

Nature studied here!

Nature studied here! He is carefully explaining. As a proper young Victorian woman, she is being diplomatic, allowing him to show her the world while she sees things from a different angle. Her generation will be the first where women have the right to vote in America. #VictorianFashions #19thCenturyTradeCards
