Signed. Anne Buck (14 May 1910 - 12 May 2005) was a British cultural historian and curator of dress, who established the Gallery of Costume at Platt Hall in Manchester. She was a leading scholar of dress, who was a founder member and long-time chairman of the Costume Society, and author of many books and papers on the history of dress. She was described as "a towering presence, her contribution to her subject matched by only a handful of outstanding individuals world-wide in the twentieth century". This little booklet is reprinted from an article she wrote for Folk Life in 1963. It is signed by her on the front cover and contains photographs and sketches. There are also 3 separate photographs which clearly show the patterns and stitchwork in one of these garments.
