Artwork from The Delineator Magazine, January 1892 (Part 2)

Hey folks!  As I promised, I'm continuing to a finale some more artwork from the antique issue of The Delineator issued in January of 1892.  There's a ton more illustrations of fashion art, but here's a brief look some more that I pulled.

Artwork from The Delineator Magazine, January 1892 (Part 1)

Hey folks!  I've taken a little break from PaperSponge, but I'm back.  My posts in the future will be one to two posts a week to give more attention to each post and to spread my time better between here, GadgetSponge and other ventures.

Today, it's all about the illustrations from the January 1892 issue of The Delineator.  The Delineator was a women's fashion magazine that started in 1869, called The Metropolitan Monthly.  The Delineator was probably favored by women with knowledge or appreciation of handmade or custom clothing.  It featured the fashion of the current trends, sewing patterns and materials used to accessorize or upgrade clothing.

This post along with at least one more will celebrate the artwork of this fine old magazine (that is quickly falling apart in my hands!!!).  I hope you enjoy them!
