A creative historian always has his/her eye out for curiosities. This design book was made by Virginia Rymer (who that is, I don’t know yet). I bought it at an antique store in West Virginia today for just $10. It seems to have been made for a college course, and includes pages of pages from lectures, color schemes, various clippings of fabric, drawings of mostly women’s fashion of the period.

Perhaps a fashion historian can chime in with more in the comments.
