Hi all,

 

We have a large collection of military uniforms and women's fashions from as
early as 1810 to 1970. The Society is getting preparted to mount a small
display during our World War II Encampment event and I have prepared several
uniforms for display. When I discovered several of these uniforms, they were
rolled up and stuffed into file boxes within our collections storage areas.
Is there any "museum" method to removing the wrinkles, other than steaming
or the use of a conventional iron?

 

Thanks!
