Bishop Family Collection
This collection includes three scrapbooks containing reproductions from magazines ca. 1918-1922. The scrapbooks were compiled by the Anderson sisters, Jessie, Dorothy, Martha (Rivers), and Mary (Van Renssalear). The books used by the sisters were previously fabric sample books from which they had ordered clothing that was produced in both St. Louis and Chicago. The women filled the books with clippings of illustrations from the 1920s era.
