We notice quite a number of white tunics with lacy decoration in the early-20th century (1900s-10s). We thought that this was a style destinctive o this period. We have found a lacy tunic outfit which we bdlieve vcomes from the 1870s that looks very much like the early-20th century tunics. Like the early-20th century, it is the cut-out lave variety, not true lsce. They do not seem very common in the 70s and to date we have only found one example. We have archived qyuite a number of 1870s images and only finding one exampole, suggests that it was not very common. Nor have we found examples in the 1860s and 80s. Dating the image is a problem because it is a tin-type and tin-types are more difficult to date than other formats.
