The Journal des Marchands Tailleurs was published in Paris. The title translates as the Magazine of the Merchants Tailors. We believe they published during 1856-64. We have little information about the publication, but we have a number of fashion plates from the magazine with many images of mens' and boys' clothes. We are not sure, however, at this time what kind of text accpmpanied these fashion plates, explaining the various outfits that were depicted in the plates.
