I was referring to an actual book I have called "Mr. Godey's Ladies".
I realize it was a magazine. Since I posted the message, however, I
think I figured it out. I was going to ask another question concerning
it though if anyone does happen to have the book.

Hi,
The book is not a single book but a bound volume of a years worth of
the
magazine, so there are lots of Godey's books. They come up on eBay all
the
time but attract $100+ USD so are quite prized.
if you are after plate images from the books, there are a number of
sites
that host collections of the images.
Just google for them and you will get 100's

Does anyone have this book? I'm trying to pattern the hood on page
63.
I started out with a simple hood and figured it looks like it is
drawn
up in the back to form the pleats. If so, I can't figure out what
holds it in place other than a fitted lining underneath and that just
seems more complex than it probably is, but maybe I'm wrong. It's
from
the 1850s-60s before the complex bustle draping came in.
If you don't have the book and are interested in looking at the
picture, I can take a photo and upload it somewhere. Do we have a
place for this list to do so?
