Excerpt from Instruction Book for the Standard Tailor System: A Self-Instructor With Object Lessons in the Art of Cutting All Styles of Garments, for Ladies, Gentlemen, Children and Infants The Standard Tailor System consists of a Tailors Square, a set of Thirty-four Scales and Instruction book, also a set of Object Lesson Appliances, consisting of an Object Lesson Square, five Object Lesson Scales and two Object Lesson Rulers. The Tailors Square has joined to its inner edge a set of curves used instead of a compass to obtain curves for outlines, and these curves are lettered in alphabetic order. The square is also marked showing which way the ends of the square are to point, and character on each side of the square indicate which side is to be used, and these are again given in the diagrams to aid the learner in finding the proper curves without study or loss of time. The Scales number from 18 to 51 and show by their numbers, the number of inches they represent, and are, without a doubt, the most comprehensive and complete Scales ever offered to the public. The Book of Instruction contains Object Lessons, Illustrations and Diagrams of ladies gentlemen's, children's and infant's garments. The Object Lesson Square, Scales and Rulers are to aid the learner in self-instruction and together with the Object Lessons to act as the ever ready teacher. The method of teaching by Object Lessons and by Object Lesson Appliances through the Instruction Book is entirely new and a marvel of simplicity. It makes drafting so easy to learn that anyone, even with a very limited learning and moderate ability, can learn to use the system successfully in a very short time. There are no problems to work and nothing to commit to memory, consequently nothing to forget. With the Standard Tailor System all styles of garments can be cut from the daintiest Infants slipper and the most artistic and stylish ladies garments, to boys jackets and men's shirts and pants, making the System complete for family use as well as for the professional cutter. Books giving new styles will be published as often as styles demand. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
