The color plate and description as well as London fashions described

This description is for the first color plate I posted a couple days ago.

The two pictures were scanned from two different  books. Here are pictures of the covers:

      .

The book on the left is a hard cover with a paper pattern and worn leather. It is called a 3/4 leather bound book.

The book on the right is a black leather covered book with gold stamping.

Godey’s Lady’s Book Magazine was published monthly. Women would save their issues and get them bound every six months or yearly so every bound book is different in the binding. Godey’s were publish with the idea they were to be bound. They had excess paper on the edges, a book plate for January and July as well as indexes every six months. This wasn’t in effect for the first few years of the magazine. Godey’s Magazine was published from 1830 to 1899.

A printable/editable file for both fashion plates have been uploaded to the media folder. They are both over 6MB:
