Re: [h-cost] OT: librarian / research help requested

If you give me a title I can check it in Digital Dissertations  Theses.

 Sorry for the intrusion, but I know there are librarians on the list.
 I guess I could make the argument that how to do research is
 on-topic. :-)

 I'm looking for a 1979 thesis from OSU. It's not available via UMI. My
 local library (Fort Bend County, TX) can't get the microfiche via ILL.
 It's not available in Google Books. Other than paying the university
 to make me a copy, is there any other way to get one (paid or free)? I
 have access to quite a few databases via the Houston Public Library,
 if that helps (
 http://www.houstonlibrary.org/alphabeticaldatabaselisting ).

 Thanks,

[h-cost] Color images of summer cotton frocks, 1917-1918

[vbetts]

I'm looking for color images of summer cotton frocks, 1917-1918, to get a
feel for colors and prints (if any), particularly for women past 40.  I've
been looking through newspapers, so I've got ideas on silhouette, but they
don't help much on the other.  Any suggestions?

Re: [h-cost] Book review requested - Nineteenth Century Fashion indetail

[vbetts]

 I've just got some bonus money and I'm planning on spending some of it
 on
 books. I'm looking for a book that will show me internal construction
 details of Victorian era clothing preferably using detailed photos.

Have you seen the Cornell University CD of 19th century American dresses? 
It was produced in 2001, so I'm not sure if it is still available.

I just printed off from my CD the decades that I wanted and stuck them in
a notebook for handier reference.
