Cool pictures sourced from around the late 1840s/early1850s.

And an interesting article about denim and it's upbringing. Click

Hi there,

I'm looking for any pictures of jeans made by Kan Lun or AB Elfelt. I saw AB's name listed in the book, but nothing on Kan Lun. Do you have any sources for Kan Lun?

Thanks for your help with this!!
