- Description
- Bodice and skirt, c.1864-1870. Brown silk taffeta with white checked pattern. Small standing collar, sloping shoulders, long sleeves with ruffle, black buttons down centre front, polonaise attachment at the back. Skirt has elastic waistband, and equal volume all around. Ruffle trim around hem. Hand sewn.
- Object History
- The dress is reported to have been worn by the donor's aunt, Sarah Ellen Thompson, who was born in 1872 which would suggest this is an 1880s bustle dress. However, the short straight waist, sloping shoulders, wide sleeves, piped seams and light boning placed in the darts suggest an earlier date of 1860s or early 1870s. The polonaise is tacked on to the back, instead of a continuation of the bodice, and the skirt does not look like the late bustle period. Likely made in early bustle period of the late 1860s-early 1870s. Elsewhere in the file, it is reported the donor got the dress from a friend, not from her aunt.

- HV977.37.81
- Description
- Dress, c. 1921-1925. Blue wool crepe dress without shaping. A pink scarf is attached to the collar, and there is a false undershirt. This dress is in the typical straight shape and mid-calf length of the first half of the 1920s. The subtle motif of three scallops in the skirt, lapel, ties, and cuffs is typical of the period's art deco design. The only shaping in the garment comes from tiny darts in the shoulders; a few pleats in the centre front as well as the loose fit of the garment allows the wearer to walk with ease. The collar is low and rolled, with pink silk forming the public side. The underside is of the same fabric as the dress. The collar extends on either side in long strips that can be used as a tie or scarf. The ties end in the scalloped pattern of three bumps. Lapels extend on the bodice to just below the bust area, with three gold metallic buttons on the left side. Under the lapel opening is a false undershirt in the same pink silk as the collar. It closes with snaps, under false ivory coloured buttons with a pinwheel design. About two inches below the spot where the lapels meet, there are also belt loops on either side of the dress to indicate a dropped waist, although there is no waist shaping. The belt is not present. Where the lapels come together, the line of the right lapel continues downward diagonally to the left front. It then returns to the centre in a scalloped diagonal pattern, and at each scallop a new pleat extends into the skirt. The sleeves are plain except for the cuffs, which repeat the scalloped pattern of the lapels and skirt. There is one gold metallic closure on each cuff. The skirt ends with a false hem, which is hand sewn. There are quite a few hand sewn finishes to keep the dress in place, especially with the false undershirt, but it is mainly machine sewn. The seams are finished with a serger.
- Object History
- From the family home of Thomas Seaborn McNair and Mary Vida (nee McMillan) McNair who lived on West 33rd Avenue in Vancouver. Thomas McNair ran Edwards, McNair and Russell, an established estate agent business.

- Record player - Fleetwood, speeds 78, 45, 33 1/3, 16. Model 319 / Serial No. A 56555 / . . . . / MADE IN CANADA / RECORD PLAYER CORPORATION". It has a pop up 45 rpm record, centre on the turntable. the turntable was coated with flocking type of finish rather than having a felt or rubber mat. The 16 rpm speed was an attempt to give longer playback times. The fidelity was not good and was used mostly for voice only recording (story telling for children) or on musac type recordings. This was used for a short period c 1957 to 1959 and then faded away.
- Object History
- Fleetwood record player made by the Record Player Corporation of Montreal. This appears to have been intended for children to play their records. The most interesting thing about the record player is that it has four speeds – 78 RPM, 45 RPM, 33 1/3 RPM and 16 RPM.
