Polytechnic, Leicester

Hide Profile

A set of 19th century fashion plates cut out of magazines and glued to cards. Some are stamped 'City of Leicester Colleges of Art and Technology' indicating that they were collected some time between 1925 and 1969, although their condition suggests that they were glued down at a later date, probably during the Leicester Polytechnic era. The cards were kept in the Library as a resource supporting the teaching of fashion history, before being moved to the Archive for greater security.
