Scott's Report of Fashions

[NYCivilWar]

Hello All,

Has anyone ever seen a copy of "Scott's Report of Fashions" published by Genio C. Scott?
Apparently Scott published this sartorial magazine in the mid-nineteenth century starting about 1843. This magazine gave the latest men's fashions of the day.

I couldn't find much online except that LSU has a copy in their special collections.

Any leads would be helpful.

Try searching worldcat.org for the author, you might find a library with a copy and do inter-library loan.

Have a nice day.

I found this on a Google search but I know this isn't exactly what you are looking for but it does have some of his prints online.

I did a search in World Cat and found that the American Antiquarian Society also has some copies so you could check with them as to the dates.

Re: Scott's Report of Fashions

In 1841 a Scott & Wilson published A treatise on cutting garments to fit the human form... found here:
http://openlibrary.org/b/OL7004179M/...the_human_form. The Scott of Scott & Wilson is not identified beyond a last name, however in the front matter of the book there is an advertsiement for London Report of Fashions and a New York Report of Fashions, and other publications as well, so I think it may be the same man.

Good Luck,
