McCall's Magazine September 1903 Fashion Patterns for PDF Download

I have been working on setting up a retail website to sell some digital downloads of some rare pattern magazines I have as well as to start selling some of my sewing pattern collection.  I have downloads up and available now.  I would love any feedback anyone has, obviously I need more content since this is a start up it's a bit sad looking now.  I would also like to scale down the size of my logo... once I figure out how to do it... lol!

Here is one of the first digital downloads I have available.  It is a gorgeous magazine and a prized possession :)  It's watermarked with my logo now, but the watermark is removed in the PDF download version.  Several other pages can be viewed on the new store website I am working on.



Magazine features many articles of current fashions including women, children and millinery. There are many clothing prints with corresponding McCall's pattern listed along with price, description and materials needed.

There is an article on how to use a McCall's pattern and take measurements as well as instructions to crochet a pretty shawl, dainty handkerchief bag, a plate doily, and hanging pocket.

Featured articles include (from the Table of Contents):
  • Early Autumn Fashions
  • The Summer House of the "First Lady in the Land" (Illustrated) (Article about Roosevelt's home at Sagamore Hill, the Home at Oyster Bay, Long Island, NY)
  • The Professor's Love Affair (Story)
  • Random Notes
