Curatorial RemarksNote
It is believed that these crewelwork coats were part of the staff/guides' attire at Sunnyside (and/or possibly other HHV sites); as this appears to be handmade, it is unclear if guides were expected to make their own version, or perhaps this was one guide's effort at creating something she thought appropriate for wearing at work. As of yet, there are no images showing an SHR employee wearing a garment like this. It may have been worn by hostesses and/or retail shop staff, not guides (?). There are three of these jackets in the collection. [Jessa J. Krick, 4/26/2022].Note Type
