Does anyone out there have a first edition copy of Sheila Landi's "The
Textile Conservator's Manual"? I was recently told that the first
edition contains a very handy pattern for reproduction 18th-c stays that
was not including in subsequent editions. If this is the case, and you
have a copy, I would very much appreciate a photocopy of the directions
or pattern.
Thanks.
