These millinery samples were made by Miss L Craine of Manchester, England in the 1940s. Sewing patterns, reference images and course notes were also included in the box where these artifacts were found. It seems that Miss. L Craine attended school in the 40s and later taught at the Oldham Municipal School of Arts & Crafts in the 1960s. We found some report cards giving such evidence. Grant Heaps, a fellow collector of antiquities, purchased this treasure in Vancouver's lower east side. His house will be featured in the Tuesday Interiors post on the 31st.
