I think it was from the Museum of London site. The pocket I believe said
that it was listed at about 1620. There are very few pockets from pre1600s.
Presently I can not find the site.

I really like that pocket and would be interested in embroidering a replica.
I couldn't back out of the link to find the page with the pocket
description, date, materials, etc.  Could someone please direct me to that
part of the site?
