Summary
A white cotton flannelette romper suit for a child. It has yokes at the front and back, and long sleeves and legs gathered into cuffs. It opens down the front as far as halfway up the back, and fastens at the front with three fabric-covered buttons, the middle one of which is missing. Sewn at the back of the neck are two labels embroidered in red - one with '2', and one with 'Joan'. The garment is very dirty and there is a large tear at the back of the left leg.
