Beschreibung
5" x 7" Sale Catalogue. Catalog is undated but several illustrations show women with bobber hair so I'm guessing 1920"s. The Ferris Brothers introduced a brand of children's and women's corset waists called Ferris Good Sense Waists which became a brand name. These waists were considered healthier and more progressive than the traditional waists for girls and young women because they did not cinch in the waistline too tightly and, for the most part, they abandoned the custom of using whale bone or steel stays that actually did harm to developing bodies. The models for girls and women show some indentation but it was much less radical than what people had been used to. The corsets were suggested for girls as young as seven , the catalog states, " Careful attention to daughter's corseting today means a healthy body for her at maturity." Text is clean, tight and unmarked. B&W illustrations on every page. Covers are clean, intact, rubbed along fold. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 501053
