Matheson's Scientific and Practical Guide for the Tailor's Cutting Department: Being a Complete Treatise on Measuring, Drafting, and Making-Up, in All Styles From Childhood to Old Age It is now over thirty years since I cut and made the first coat, and twenty-two years since I entered the Tailoring business on my own account. The skill of tradesmen was not so severely tested then as it is now. However that excellence of workmanship has become indispensable to success, it is more imperative than ever that he who would impart instruction in any art or science should be possessed of a thorough and practical knowledge of what he teaches. From my long experience and favourable circumstances in business, I trust that I shall be found to possess the qualifications so much requisite to communicate a clear and practical knowledge to others. This system of cutting is not an inven tion of the departed, or any one living except myself, and is not got up for a speen lation, but from a desire to do good to my fellow-man. It has been tested for the last eight years extensively under my own immediate observation and in my own hands, with the greatest success ever known in fitting customers, without trying on or refitting, as is usually done. The system is simple and easily learned a practical Cutter can learn it in less time than he can cut a coat, and put it in Operation with the greatest ease after he drafts the first coat. For accuracy, elegance of design, and rapidity in executing a draft, it has no rival in the profession, as it will draft a coat in five minutes and use less cloth, or, at all events, as small a quantity as any pattern in existence. Patterns are a thing of the past with this system, and will only be used hereafter by inferior cutters and old fogies.

This book was released on 2011-02-07 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A true story more incredible than fiction." —Kevin Baker, author of Striver's Row In George Appo's world, child pickpockets swarmed the crowded streets, addicts drifted in furtive opium dens, and expert swindlers worked the lucrative green-goods game. On a good night Appo made as much as a skilled laborer made in a year. Bad nights left him with more than a dozen scars and over a decade in prisons from the Tombs and Sing Sing to the Matteawan State Hospital for the Criminally Insane, where he reunited with another inmate, his father. The child of Irish and Chinese immigrants, Appo grew up in the notorious Five Points and Chinatown neighborhoods. He rose as an exemplar of the "good fellow," a criminal who relied on wile, who followed a code of loyalty even in his world of deception. Here is the underworld of the New York that gave us Edith Wharton, Boss Tweed, Central Park, and the Brooklyn Bridge.

Download or read book Cutting for All! written by Kevin L. Seligman and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Containing 2,729 entries, Kevin L. Seligman’s bibliography concentrates on books, manuals, journals, and catalogs covering a wide range of sartorial approaches over nearly five hundred years. After a historical overview, Seligman approaches his subject chronologically, listing items by century through 1799, then by decade. In this section, he deals with works on flat patterning, draping, grading, and tailoring techniques as well as on such related topics as accessories, armor, civil costumes, clerical costumes, dressmakers’ systems, fur, gloves, leather, military uniforms, and undergarments. Seligman then devotes a section to those American and English journals published for the professional tailor and dressmaker. Here, too, he includes the related areas of fur and undergarments. A section devoted to journal articles features selected articles from costume- and noncostumerelated professional journals and periodicals. The author breaks these articles down into three categories: American, English, and other. Seligman then devotes separate sections to other related areas, providing alphabetical listings of books and professional journals for costume and dance, dolls, folk and national dress, footwear, millinery, and wigmaking and hair. A section devoted to commercial pattern companies, periodicals, and catalogs is followed by an appendix covering pattern companies, publishers, and publications. In addition to full bibliographic notation, Seligman provides a library call number and library location if that information is available. The majority of the listings are annotated. Each listing is coded for identification and cross-referencing. An author index, a title index, a subject index, and a chronological index will guide readers to the material they want. Seligman’s historical review of the development of publications on the sartorial arts, professional journals, and the commercial paper pattern industry puts the bibliographical material into context. An appendix provides a cross-reference guide for research on American and English pattern companies, publishers, and publications. Given the size and scope of the bibliography, there is no other reference work even remotely like it.
