This listing is for an original copy of a rare 1896 November edition of Imperial Mode and Domestic Styles, a region paper published in Chicago by Imperial Publishing Co. The original catalogue was a subscription service highlighting fashions, patters, interests and ads geared towards the American woman in the mid-west. The original catalogue is in fair condition and shows some staining, foxing and tape residue. Some of the pages have split and there is small sections of paper loss. The spine staple or lacings have been removed. These original monthly catalogs are great for identifying antique patterns and getting ideas for those wishing to create fashions inspired by this time period. Actual patterns were and are not included in this catalogue.
