DescriptionInfant's pinafore of cotton printed with a very small brown and white checkered pattern. The pinafore is cut in a long rectangle; the ends are folded towards the center back. Semicircular cuts in the folded edges create the armholes. A drawstring run through a casing along the top edge ties at center back. The edges of the center back opening are the selvages of the cloth, which is 26 inches wide.
