This Catalogue Collection from my private collection is derived from my November 1929 McCall's Complete Counter Catalogue. It features 150 JPG pictures of the beautiful Dresses of the period and they are amazing artwork. McCall's was one of the first Pattern Companies to realize color sells and I believe were the
originators of the color pattern envelopes.




There is also a picture included of the Catalogue Cover and the JPGs are all 550 pixels wide X 620 pixels tall + or - with the exception of the cover. There is some shadowing on a few models that were at the binding edge as I did not want to damage this fantastic piece of dressmaking ~ fashion history by dismantling it.




The pictures in this catalogue are identical to the paste-on color pattern illustration that were on the front of the pre-1930s smaller envelopes and if you have any of these gorgeous old patterns and are missing the paste on front ~ or it is damaged and /or stained these are great to print out as a replacement! 





My CD pictures are great for printing and folks have used them for Fabric Blocks ~an issue of Paper Dolls ~ I have made Christmas Cards and more ~ One Lady used them to make cards to sell at a thrift shop ~ Another made a graph for Cross Stitch. All of these uses are great with a nod to the source. Please do not sell or give away the digital art as it is copyrighted published work and is the result of long hours of work as
well as a humongous lot of money in source materials.





This issue was actually redone to upsize the amount of pictures. If you are a fashion lover these are a great look at original ad art for a very nice price. This particular CD has a few designer models as well (See above right credited to Vionnet).
