Assistance is sought in locating 18th-century wigs and primary source
materials on wigmakers.
 
The Wig Shop at the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation is seeking
original 18th-century wigs to study and document.
 
We are interested in both American and European wigs, wigmaking
equipment, barbering tools and period literature on these subjects.
