World Costumes














These pages are from the book "World costumes" by Angela Bradshaw published in 1953 by The MacMillian Company, made in Great Britain and printed by Morrison and Gibbs LTD.  This is a library copy but it was in great shape for the age. The book features 142 drawings and 16 colour (as spelled on cover) plates.  It features a wide range of traditional garb from various countries and includes short descriptions of each drawing, with the exception of the plates, which only stat the country. This book was reprinted in 1961 and 1963.  This book is now out of print but may be available at the library.
