Såhär står det på baksidan av häftet:
"This is one of the best-known and most popular of all newspaper doll sets. The two figures and thirty-eight fashionable costumes of the day appeared in the Herald's Sunday supplements during 1895 and 1896. The series provides a fashion guide to the period, with costumes reflecting many pastimes of stylish women. From bathing suits to tennis and yachting outfits to teagowns, opera cloaks, even wedding apparel, we can see the wardrobe of the well-dressed upper-class lady. The Boston Herland Ladies allow us a splendid glimpse of fashionable garments worn at the end of the nineteenth century and an historical sense of the activities enjoyed at that time."

Som ni förstår så har jag tillbringat ett x-antal timmar dräglandes över detta häfte. En fråga som alltid dyker upp i mitt huvud är: Varför envisas vi med att bära jeans när man kan bära något sånt här? I'll never know...
