RUCHED GATHERING IS AT THE SIDES AND IS SLIT IN BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR WITH ADJUSTABLE LINEN TAPES ON EACH SIDE OF THE RUCHING.

MUSEUM ID TAG ON THE WAISTLINE.  

CONDITION:   SOME SMALL RUST SPOT STAINING AT THE FRONT WITH DARKER SPOT STAINING DOWN THE POINT SIDE ON EACH OF THE FRONT SIDES.  A STRIGHT TWO INCH TEAR IS ON THE MIDDLE OF ONE PANEL WITH A FRAYED BREAK IN THE MIDDLE JUST BENEATH THE WAISTBAND.  

A BUTTON IS NEEDED FOR THE CLOSURE.  WHEN HELD TO LIGHT, THERE ARE TWO STITCHED BUTTON LOOPS THAT I BELIEVE WOULD HAVE CONNECTED TO THE TAPES.   THERE IS AN ERASER SIZED HOLE AT THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE BOTTOM HEM.
