The following is a compilation of mid 19 century examples of costuming and accessories. My intent is to share these with researchers of historical costuming. I ask that people peruse the collection on my web site. If you would like to share this site with others, please give them the site address. Needless to say, no one should be copying these for financial gain. I have organized the data into several categories:

CDV's Ebay Items Conference Displays Personal Collection

Sibley House MN
