Lichenstein & Co. Tailors' Trimmings




Lichensteins has been in the same spot on Delancey street since 1903. I'm amazed how much has changed outside that door since Lichensteins has opened and yet how little has changed inside that same door. The owner still works the front measuring hair canvas, counting out buttons and selling shoulder pads for local custom tailors while the wife works the books in the back.

Hair canvas?

Hair Canvas is the canvas that is used in the chest of high quality jackets.

wow, this series of photographs reminds me of the place where my mom used to buy her buttons and fabrics, over 20 years ago. I love the photographs.
