Description: This is an 1892 catalog for the Crescent Company, 100 Wooster Street, New York . It includes "men's athletic goods" including sleeveless and quarter sleeved shirts, knee and full tights, bicycle pants, skull caps, and trunks. It also offers bathing suits for men women and children, including Neptune Life Saving Bathing Suits - the image shows a man and woman floating in the suits - unfortunately with no explanation of how it worked. The page describing the Boys and Misses suits also offers suits with optional Neptune Life Belts. The 4 1/4 by 6 3/4 inch catalog has 20 pages. The paper is toned and very fragile. The cover is chipped and the spine held together with yellowing clear tape. Several pages have items crossed out in red pencil and additions of colors written in with ink. Despite the condition, this is a rare catalog - it's especially hard to find catalogs offering bathing suits for this era.
