RARE Vintage popular ca. 1948 Vogue S-4942 Women’s Dress sewing pattern-Size 12 Bust 30”-Complete

!!PLEASE READ THIS LISTING IN ITS ENTIRETY!! I know I run the risk of sounding redundant, but it appears necessary with the few messages I receive complaining of conditions, or requests that contradict my shop policies, that are clearly stated in every listing. I do my very best and invest my time to research, inspect, post, and describe every single pattern so that you feel confident in your purchase. As an experienced sewer, I would NEVER sell a pattern that I did not feel was useful nor could create the intended garment. Of course I'm only human and not exempt from honest mistakes—which, if it occurs, are truly honest—so if an item is grossly misrepresented, simply contact me and I'll work with you to reach a resolution. PLEASE keep in mind these patterns are essentially comprised of VERY old and delicate paper and tissue, so you should expect varying degrees of wear and tear due to past ownership, handling, and storage. Examples are, but not limited to: tears, rips, writing, marks, holes, creases, wrinkles, alterations, stains, odors, and discoloration. Any major issues that would effect construction of the garment will be noted. If you require specific or additional details, please don't hesitate to message me—I typically respond within 24-48 hours. THANK YOU so much in advance for your understanding, and taking the time to read this listing.

Pattern tissue:
All 8 pieces counted.
Patterns from this era were manufactured as pre-cut, thus margins are even.

May or may not have pinholes, small holes, microtears, and/or tailor's marks/notes (ie from tracing wheel, chalk, pen).
Normal wrinkling and creasing from use and storage but can be resolved with ironing.
May have had pins from past owner which I removed to the best of my ability.
Pieces were found neatly folded and replaced in envelope.
NOTEWORTHY ISSUES:
-Skirt hem appears jagged, as if cut, but I'm unsure. However, piece appears to have a good amount of length. See photo.

Overall, good condition and useable.

Because this is a vintage item, wear popular is inevitable due to age, storage, and past ownership. I make every effort to examine my items thoroughly and provide details in both the description and photos that may effect decisions in purchasing and in your enjoyment of the product. Please understand, an exhaustive list of every imperfection simply cannot be captured, but I make an effort to indicate anything obvious or glaring. I am more than happy to answer questions and provide additional photos.

Sizing changes throughout time. Please refer to photos and the description for measurements. There are great articles and tutorials on the internet on how to grade patterns, or adjust them to your measurements.

No returns, exchanges, cancellations, nor refunds. However, I aim to correct any wrongs within reason.
