Beautiful original vintage fashion and sewing-pattern magazine illustration, believed to date to circa 1925 and attributed to Pictorial Review magazine.
This colorful period illustration features five elegantly dressed women wearing fashionable 1920s dresses, blouses, skirts, and cloche hats. The accompanying advertisements promote printed sewing patterns, complete with original pattern numbers, garment descriptions, sizes, and period pricing.
Pictorial Review was a prominent American women’s magazine published from 1899 to 1939, particularly known for its fashion illustrations, sewing patterns, and household features. Its fashion advertisements provide a fascinating glimpse into the changing styles of the Jazz Age and the emerging flapper era.
The illustration is printed on thin, non-glossy, naturally aged period paper with traditional commercial printing characteristics. A handwritten notation on the reverse of the framing appears consistent with an abbreviated reference to Pictorial Review, 1925.
Professionally double-matted and presented in an attractive gold-tone frame, creating a beautiful ready-to-display piece of vintage fashion history.
Dimensions: Approximately 16½ × 20½ inches framed.
Condition: Very good vintage presentation with age-appropriate paper toning and scattered foxing or spotting consistent with its apparent age. The illustration retains attractive colors and clear printed details. Matting and frame present nicely, with minor signs of handling and age. Please review photographs for overall condition.
An appealing example of Roaring Twenties fashion advertising, ideal for collectors of Art Deco imagery, vintage clothing, sewing history, and early twentieth-century magazine illustrations.
