Okay here are a few books I have for sale:

An Original 1863 Godey's Lady's Book...has no cover about a hundred pages missing from the front...does contain end of February through the Beginning of December, 1000's of pages very readable although it does have lots of wear (need pictures just ask :) ) Lots of patterns and stories and songs, etc. $25

An 1859 Peterson's Magazine in it's original cover binding looks to have been repaired. Has all the months From July - December (VOL. XXXVI No.1) Even has contents pages at back of book. It is old and has some wear, pages are easy to read little staining...really good condition for it's age I think. Stories, songs, patterns, etc. $30

Heidi Marsh's book KNIT, NET CROCHET, and MORE of the HOOP ERA...compiled patterns from Godey's and Peterson's with definitions and dictionary's for the different areas of needlework. Just like new...bought new for 29.95....I will part with it for $20

Elizabeth Stewart Clark's Books:
Skirting the Issue: A workbook for skirts and petticoats
And
The Dressmaker's Guide to Fit and Fashion
Dressmaker's guide had some pencil marks in it that I erased...still some smudges but nothing over all typing so the text is readable...also has my friends measurements in the inside of the backcover in ink so I couldn't erase...otherwise just like new.
Skirting the issue is just like new no marks.
Both for $15 or if you want just one it is $7
