Corsets for Comfort and Beauty. Beauty of Form and Feature What it Depends On (Cover Title)

Chicago: Chicago Corset Company, Publisher. Wraps. Very Good. Item #019256

no date, presumed late 1800s, early 1900s. Small booklet, printed wraps. 4 by 3 inches. 16 pp. No illustrations. A promotional work issued by the Chicago Corset Company, promoting their Ball Corset that apparently was comfortable to wear, allowing a woman to lie down in it, or to sing. As the piece notes, "Strictly speaking, a corset does not preserve a woman's health, but a proper corset preserves your health in the sense of preventing injury to it." VERY GOOD condition. Minor wrinkling and soiling to the covers.

Price: $40.00
