Summary
A pair of child's late 19th or early 20th century (circa 1890 to circa 1910) cream cotton knickers that fasten onto a bodice. There are two button holes on one side of the waistband and three button holes on the other side of the waistband. The middle button hole is vertical. The knickers are open slightly at each side. An embroidered line is around the edge of the leg holes and it appears that a lace trim has been removed.
