The Cutters' Album THE CUTTER'S DEFECTS IN COATS AND PRACTICAL Guide to the Cutting Room,!

Contains every extraordinary garment a cutter in ordinary practice is likely to be called upon to cut. A diagram of each of the garments is given in complete form. Each Plate is supplemented by all necessary instructions for cutting, making and trimming each garment, and the Album is so arranged that the instructions face the diagrams, as it lies before the cutter on the board. To make the Album still more complete, it contains

Beautifully Engraved Figures

The Album embodies a further acquisition in the form of

72 Diagrams, and 44 Figures, Illustrating the garments represented by the diagrams. IN STIFF PAPER COYERS, 2/9. NEATLY BOUND IN CLOTH, 3/9.
