Hi Museum-L,

 

I am looking for a reproduction 18th or 19th century corset to use in
classes and at learning stations.  It wouldn't need to be wearable, just
something to show people what a corset is, and how it could cause deformity
of the rib cage (we have such a deformed skeleton in our collection).  Any
ideas of suppliers and costs?

 

Thanks,

Laurel
