This proposal seeks funds to hire Lynne Bassett, a nationally recognized independent curator and textile specialist, to review the objects in the collection and provide additional information for the inventory. As the ongoing, previously funded, inventory and storage projects commenced, it became clear that the costume collection needed specialized attention. Lynne Bassett will provide a collection analysis, basic review of approx. 500 pieces, prepare a detailed report for the twenty most significant items and provide a storage plan and collection summary. The collection includes nineteenth- and twentieth-century military uniforms, costumes for dolls, dresses, and baby bonnets.
