About this work

A chromolithographic advertisement titled Preparing for the Ball, dated 1884 and credited to Bencke & Scott. A woman in a yellow lace gown stands while an attendant arranges her red fur-trimmed cloak, as a seamstress sews at her hem and a girl in pink holds up scissors. Boxes of Willimantic spool cotton and a large spool labeled Willimantic Linen Co. appear in the foreground, with the company's Six Cord logo above.
