Well, it seems that my copy of this book has mysteriously disappeared between December and now.
I hate when books go missing!
Anyway, the old cutter and Tailor site has some of the coat drafts, which I should download, and will do so in case the site goes down again.
In the meantime, does anyone have a scan of this book that they would be willing to share with me?
To be honest I mostly used the section on riding breeches and jodhpurs, and would really love a scan of that section.
:(

I have a short section that only deals with the normal figure long pants.

Ahh yes! Many thanks.
I didn't dig far enough in the old site, obviously.

Does anyone actually have a full scan of the Mitchell System, or only the pages that were in C&T?

I'd also like to get a complete version of that. I've never seen it anywhere.

I am also interested in a copy of that book.

Hi everyone,

I tried using the web archive tool to recover the images but to no avail.
I was wondering if anyone would be kind to share with me their pages on this system?

Many Thanks!

I have a complete scan of the book produced, since I have the original. I wanted to produce reprints but it makes no sense to sell them as I wouldn't make any profit and would have only work with it for nothing. The book is not so important but nice to have as collection. The quality of my scans are spotless, better than the original, when it was sold. I could sell the original in its dilapidated form for 100$ but even for that I have work and no profit, not worth to walk to the post office.

I do not understand your philosophy. If you can sell 3 copies and you take 30 Dollars + matrial + postage costs - you have 90 dollars gained. Now you have nothing - besides not worn out shoes.

Indians will sell it for $10.00.

That is what I mean. It is not worth to even to put papers in a printer. They can order a copy in Asia somewhere, maybe even in Siberia or Madagascar or Fireland for 5$. Just google for a copy they are available like sand on a shore.

Well, if your verson is of a superior quality, which I imagine it is, that is a selling point.

You could accept payment for a digital copy by paypal.
