Publishers' Preface

TO THE

THIRD EDITION


THE confidence with which this work was first introduced has been well justified by the result—a very large edition having been disposed of. Very rarely, if ever has a work so comprehensive been published in connection with the art of cutting. For though nominally a work on Juvenille Cutting, it embraces nearly every garment made by tailors.

Besides systems for and treatises on Trousers and Vests, systems for Morning Coats and Dress Coats, it also deals with Military Garments, Liveries and other garments, all worked out by a system which has now become well nigh universally popular, a special feature of the work being its beautifully engraved illustrations and diagrams. We have had very many indications that the work is highly appreciated by all who have procured it, and many testimonies might be recorded if that were necessary. This Third Edition has been prepared in all its original completeness. With such a work in their possession neither the inexperienced student nor the cutter in full practice should feel any difficulty in producing any of the garments treated and illustrated in this work.
