The Cutter's Practical Guide, Part 4

The work we have now completed, which will be placed before the members of an intelligent profession, is essentially the outcome of practical experience in the high-class livery trade. But as the experience of one on so wide a topic as all kinds of Liveries must, of necessity, be of a limited nature, we have gladly availed ourselves of a large circle of trade friends, many of whom are engaged in some of the most noted Livery trades in this great City of London. Many of these have materially helped in the preparation of this work, for which we extend to them our hearty thanks, feeling assured that the ideas and hints gained from such sources have such a practical bearing on the subject of Liveries, that the value of the work has been largely enhanced thereby. We have spared neither trouble nor pains to make this work as complete as possible, and trust it will supply a feeling of want in tailoring establishments.
