Summary
A doll's large, boned cream cotton corset. The corset is fastened by threading white cotton woven ties in a cross-over arrangement through four pairs of eyelets. There is a cream lace with ribbon insertion at the top of the corset and two metal fastenings at the back. The two braid ties end in white buttons which are attached at the bottom. There is also a label handwritten by Betty Cadbury which reads 'Dolls corset £1.25'.
