Costume Sketch by Walter Plunkett for the movie How The West Was Won (1962).

We have pleased to announce that we will be giving a presentation on Victorian fashion and the West entitled: The Victorian West: How The West Was Worn at the Magnificent 7 Convention (M7Con) at 3 PM on Saturday, October 24, 2015 at the Los Angeles Convention Center. This will be the second time that we have presented at the M7Con, the first time was in 2013 and we had a good time then so we’ve decided to do it again with an expanded program. Also, as part of our presentation, we will have on display some select items from our collection and we will be available to answer questions. Finally, just to let you all know, while the M7 Convention originally started as a convention centered around all things Magnificent Seven from either the movies or television series, it’s been expanded out to more of a general Western theme. Be sure to mark your calendars- we look forward to seeing you there!
