Custodial History

This collection forms part of the Jay T. Last Collection of Graphic Arts and Social History, which was donated to the Huntington Library by Jay T. Last in 2005 as a gift in progress. The bulk of the Fashion Prints and Ephemera were transferred to the Library between 2010 and 2013.

Biographical / Historical

The Jay T. Last Collection is an unparalleled archive of printed paper artifacts that documents American lithographic, social, and business history. The collection began in the early 1970s when, physicist and Silicon Valley pioneer, Jay Last moved to Southern California and started collecting citrus box labels he found at local flea markets and rummage sales. As his collection grew, Last realized that these labels conveyed important information about commercial printing, graphic design, and social history, and he expanded his collection to include other forms of American visual culture. Today this collection contains more than 200,000 lithographic prints, posters, and ephemera of mostly nineteenth and early twentieth century American origin and represents works by more than five hundred lithographic companies.

Scope and Contents

The Jay T. Last collection of fashion prints and ephemera contains approximately 7,500 items dating from the 1570s to the early 1900s, with the bulk of the items spanning from 1825 to 1900. This collection consists of fashion plates, advertising prints, broadsides, and promotional ephemera produced for clothiers and tailors, dry goods suppliers, garment manufacturers, fashion publications, and textile companies affiliated with the design, production, and/or sale of clothing, accessories, and dry goods. While most of the materials are American, there are also notable quantities of foreign items in the collection, including French fashion plates, fez labels in several languages, and foreign textile labels. Labels affixed to textile samples of various sizes are also included.
Materials are broadly divided into two series: small-size items (11 x 14 inches or smaller) and large-size items (typically larger than 11 x 14 inches). Small-size items are described broadly at the series level; large-size items and select small-size items are fully inventoried with printers, artists, and publishers indexed by name. The collection includes 250 large-size items comprised mainly of lithographic advertising prints and fashion plates. Small-size items number approximately 7,250 and contain a variety of promotional materials including trade cards, calendars, booklets, product labels, fashion plates, periodicals, clippings, and printed billheads and letterheads with manuscript text. Each series is divided into subseries according to the kind of business, service, or trade sponsoring the advertisement. Types of businesses have been identified according to the principal type of product(s) manufactured or sold by the business. These subseries are arranged as follows: Accessories; Clothiers, Tailors, and Dry Goods; Fashion Plates And Periodicals; Footwear; Garments; Headwear; Sewing Supplies; and Textiles.
This collection contains many American and European printed illustrations, commonly known as "fashion plates," that typically depict men, women, or children modeling current clothing and dress styles. Small plates (usually 14 x 10 inches or less in this collection) illustrated the pages of magazines and bound volumes that were marketed specifically for women. Larger plates, primarily intended for display, advertised the products and services of fashion designers, tailors, and pattern makers.
The collection provides a resource for studying clothing and dress, sales and merchandise, textiles, and sewing, as well as changing fashion trends in the United States and Europe in the 19th century. The images are primarily promotional in nature and provide information about the history of the American fashion, clothing, dry-goods, and textile industries and the evolution of their advertising strategies in the 19th and early 20th centuries. As graphic materials, the prints offer evidence of developing techniques and trends in printmaking, and of the artists, engravers, lithographers, printers, and publishers involved in the creative process.

Series I. Fashion Prints and Ephemera (small size) approximately 1577-1943, bulk 1825-1900

Physical Description: 57.42 Linear Feet (52 binders, 5 flat-boxes)

Scope and Contents

This series contains approximately 7,250 small-size printed items that pertain to fashion, clothing and dress, textiles, and sewing supplies from the late 16th century to the early 20th century, with the bulk of the items dating from 1825-1900. The material consists of trade cards, calendars, booklets, product labels, fashion plates, periodicals, clippings, and printed billheads and letterheads with manuscript text.
Items in this series are grouped broadly according to the kind of business, service, or trade sponsoring the advertisement. Types of businesses have been identified according to the principal type of product(s) manufactured or sold by the business. Note that advertisements for a company may feature specific products that overlap with specialty shops and manufacturing companies in other subseries. Due to the fact that the collection covers a wide date span, categorization of items is complicated by the evolution of American commerce in the 19th and early 20th centuries, from specialized shops and tradesmen to dry goods and department stores selling an array of ready-made products. Also, advertising practices often encourage overlaps among subseries. A trade card, for example, might advertise raw materials, a finished product, a tradesman, manufacturing company, retail establishment, or some combination. In many cases, a manufacturing company created a stock trade card that dealers or agents personalized with their own textual advertisements.
The majority of items in this series promote clothiers, tailors, dry-goods establishments and specialty manufacturers, or showcase current fashions in the 19th century, with two notable exceptions: a group of hand-colored woodcuts from Hans Weigel's 1577 Trachtenbuch (Box 2, Folder 7), and a group of Esnauts et Rapilly prints illustrating French headwear and hairstyles circa 1777 (Box 2, Folder 4).

Subseries C. Fashion Plates and Periodicals (large size)

Physical Description: 127 Items

Scope and Content

This subseries contains over 120 printed illustrations of American and French fashion trends dating from the 1830s to the early 1900s. These images, commonly known as "fashion plates," typically depict men, women, or children modeling current clothing styles. Larger plates (larger than 14 x 10 inches in this collection), primarily intended for display, advertised the products and services of fashion designers, tailors, and pattern makers. For smaller plates (14 x 10 inches or less in this collection) see Series I, Subseries C.
The collection features 42 plates by Genio C. Scott dating from 1841 to 1876, 28 plates of E. Butterick & Co. dating from 1867 to 1886, and 23 plates from the French fashion magazine La Mode Illustrée dating from 1872 to 1886. The oldest fashion plate is an 1832 print from New York City tailor A. F. Saguezs. The plates contain predominantly uncolored or hand-colored images.
This material provides a resource for studying changing fashion trends in the United States and France in the 19th century. Among the changes reflected, men's fashions saw transitions from pantaloons to trousers and cravats to neck ties. Frock coats for day and tail coats for evening were very popular for much of the period. For women, a wide variety of styles, trends, and clothing items are represented, including gigot sleeves, wide full skirts, bustled and draped dresses, fitted bodices, riding habits, outerwear, and various hats, bonnets, and headdresses.
