    The Missouri Historic Costume and Textile Collection presents FASHIONING A COLLECTION: 50 Years 50 Objects March 7 – May 20, 2017 State Historical Society of Missouri Gallery FASHIONING A COLLECTION: 50 YEARS, 50 OBJECTS Missouri Historic Costume and Textile Collection Department of Textile and Apparel Management College of Human Environmental Sciences University of Missouri State Historical Society of Missouri FASHIONING A COLLECTION: 50 YEARS, 50 OBJECTS Curated by Nicole Johnston and Jean Parsons The Missouri Historic Costume and Textile Collection was established in 1967 by Carolyn Wingo to support the teaching mission of the Department of Textile and Apparel Management within the College of Human Environmental Sciences at the University of Missouri. MHCTC received its first donation of artifacts from the Kansas City Museum in Kansas City, Missouri and has grown to include over 6,000 items of apparel, accessories and household textiles donated by alumni, faculty and friends. Curator Laurel Wilson guided and nurtured the collection for over half of the Collection’s fifty years, and today, the MHCTC collects and preserves clothing and textiles of historic and artistic value for purposes of teaching, research, exhibition and outreach. This exhibit celebrates the variety and mission of the collection, and is thus organized by the three branches of that mission: education, research and exhibition. It was a challenge to choose only 50 objects as representative. We have chosen those objects most frequently used in teaching and are student favorites, as well as objects used in research by undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, and visiting scholars. Finally, favorites from past exhibits are also included, as well as objects and new acquisitions that have never been previously exhibited.

  • Legion of Frontiersmen Notebook
    Legion of Frontiersmen Notebook Includes over 30 pages with maps, charts, images and about 300 referenced historical entries Part I - General Information Part II - Referenced Timeline Part III - Uniform and Accoutrements ©Barry William Shandro M.Ed – Edmonton Canada – 01 January 2017 1 Foreword This is a personal notebook. Hopefully, this cache of information from a Canadian perspective assists with understanding the enigmatic Legion of Frontiersmen. This document is not intended for commercial reproduction nor is it intended for sale; however, the reader is most welcome to use this information as a starting point for further research. Please credit the original sources of information noted. Four decades ago I began to hear stories about the Legion of Frontiersmen from First and Second World War veterans. These accounts seemed questionable so I began a long process of investigating these claims and looking for informative sources. – To my surprise much of the verbal lore was confirmed with news quotations, documents, photos or addressed in rediscovered Frontiersmen publications. Concurrent to my efforts, the members of the History and Archives Section, Legion of Frontiersmen [Countess Mountbatten’s Own] willingly discussed their respective efforts to rediscover and preserve a very unique piece of Imperial history. Spearheaded by the Legion Historian, Geoffrey A. Pocock [Outrider of Empire, University of Alberta Press] a great deal of material has been placed online - see The Frontiersmen Historian. Additionally, the University of Alberta has been most helpful as the repository of Legion of Frontiersmen related documents. Finally, the grammatical errors and technical writing irregularities have been inserted to see if you are paying attention.

Fig.3 and 4. – Devant et dos du gilet [Front and back of the bodice] The front is pointed out to you three quarters. Trace the pattern until the dotted line which passes just through the middle of the front and place it on the fabric folded double, putting the dotted line edge to edge with the fold of the fabric. The pattern of the back will also be placed on the fabric folded double, or on two pieces placed wrong side against wrong side or right side against right side. The back and the front are joined together by the shoulder seams (a) and those of the sides (b, c). The bodice is closed at the back by snaps. It is decorated in front with small soutache or very narrow velvet. It is better to sew on this ornament before assembling the back and the front, because the ends of the soutache or velvet will go in the seams; this will be neater. The anchor which is at the top of the page was enlarged intentionally, in order to be able to be useful to your mothers for a suit for a child.

  • Development and Testing of a Data Collection Instrument For
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Kelly S. Gallett for the degree of Master of Arts in Apparel, Interiors, Housina, and Merchandising presented on June 6. 1995. Title: Development and Testina of a Data Collection Instrument for Boys' Clothina 1867-1910: An Oregon Photographic Study. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: E. Pedersen The purpose of this study was to develop and test a data collection instrument that would facilitate description of the clothing of Oregon school boys 1867-1910. In addition, the researcher attempted to describe Oregon school-aged boys' clothing and determine if fashion changes occurred in Oregon boys' clothing. The researcher also determined if there were differences in the clothing of boys from rural and urban areas. The data collection instrument was developed by examining literature on children's clothing, photographs, and magazine and catalogue illustrations. In an attempt to capture dress characteristic of everyday wear, the data source for the study consisted of documented class portrait photographs from the collections of the Oregon and Benton County Historical Associations. The instrument provided for a systematic method of data collection according to the principles of content analysis. The instrument consisted of garment categories and design detail options. A handbook of illustrations and terms accompanied the instrument to ensure consistency and reliability. A total of 503 records were collected over a period of four months. After data collection, the original instrument was revised for future use. Some detail options were added and some deleted. A footwear category was incorporated into the revised instrument after it was determined that it would be possible to gather information about footwear from group photographs.

On view in Norell will be approximately 100 ensembles and accessories from MFIT’s permanent collection, as well as a compelling selection of objects borrowed from the stellar private collection of Kenneth Pool. The exhibition is organized by Patricia Mears, MFIT deputy director, and designer Jeffery Banks, guest curator. The exhibition emphasizes key Norell designs that were developed early on and remained constant throughout his career. Many examples of his day and evening wear are on view. These garments, accessories, and related objects are organized thematically to illustrate the range of Norell’s extraordinary output and the consistently outstanding quality of work produced by his atelier. Although some of the objects date back to the early 1930s, most were designed during the last 12 years of Norell’s career—from 1960 to 1972. This phase is notable because Norell bought out his investors in the 1960s, and from then on, his name alone appeared on his label. It also was arguably his most Photograph by Milton H.

But the Navy can only decide for the Navy. Others, too, must decide. For they were more than sailors aboard. They were, as well, men. It is their suffering as men, the bitterness of the decisions they made as men, about duty, courage, loyalty, that return and return and return to pluck at the conscience.

  • The White Poodle
    THE WHITE POODLE by Alexander Kuprin From the compilation “The Garnet Bracelet and Other Stories” FOREIGN LANGUAGES PUBLISHING HOUSE Moscow Translated from the Russian by Stepan Apresyan Ocr: http://home.freeuk.com/russica2 THE WHITE POODLE I They were strolling players making their way along narrow mountain paths from one summer resort to another, on the south coast of the Crimea. Usually they were preceded by Arto—a white poodle with a lion cut— who trotted along with his long pink tongue lolling out on one side. When he came to a cross-road he would stop and look back questioningly, wagging his tail. By certain signs that he alone knew, he would unerringly pick the right way and go on at a run, his ears flapping gaily. Behind the dog came Sergei, a boy of twelve, who carried under his left arm a rolled-up rug for acrobatics, and in his right hand a dirty little cage with a goldfinch, trained to pull out of a box coloured slips of paper telling the future. Old Martin Lodizhkin shamblingly brought up the rear, a hurdy-gurdy on his crooked back. The hurdy-gurdy was an old one; it gave out croaking, coughing sounds, having undergone innumerable repairs during its long life. It played two tunes: a dreary German waltz by Launer and a gallop from "Journey to China," both of which had been in vogue some thirty or forty years ago and were now completely forgotten. There were two treacherous pipes in it. One of them, the treble, did not work at all and as soon as its turn came the music seemed to stutter, limp and stumble.
