Tissus et nouveauts 1903
A French-language dry-goods and dressmaking trade catalogue issued in Montréal by A. & H. Lionais in 1903, aimed at retailers, seamstresses and women buying fabric and ready-made garments. The plates are line and stipple engravings of standing women in high-collared blouses and gored trumpet skirts, with wide plumed hats and small handbags, printed small against text columns, useful as period silhouettes, hat and sleeve details, and figure poses for cutout collage.
