Godey's Lady's Book
Fashion: Practical Dress Instructor
Note: In order to make these images more useful to those who would like to
use the patterns to construct garments I have scanned them larger than
original size and have digitally enhanced them, where necessary, to make
measurements more readable. As a result they are rather large images,
averaging 100K compressed and uncompressing to an average of 500K.
