Vintage Scans of Clothing Pattern Catalog, Free Printable Victorian Fashion Digital Collage Sheets
Free Victorian Catalog Pages - Digital Ephemera for you mixed media art
Please do not redistribute these images in other collage sheets, on CD, etc as I took great pains in finding and scanning them. These sheets are 100% free, but I do invest a lot of time in creating them, and this project is supported through the ads and Amazon links on the page. If you find these freebie collage sheets useful, I'd very much appreciate it if you would share the link on Twitter, Pinterest, Facebook, your blog, or where ever you like to socialize with other artists online. Thank you!
P.S. Can't see the images? Try turning off your ad-blocking software... it usually can't tell the difference between modern ones and these beautiful antique advertisements.

- Hi there,
Thank you so much for your lovely steam punk and Victorian images - I will definitely let people know of your site. I have been ill with M.E. for 8 years, and so money is tight, therefore these images are wonderful, I also make cards for charity, so these images will come in really useful. Do you have any actual single images of steam punk etc that i can distress and cut out, also do you have any 'clock' papers free to download - I am bamboozled by all the lovely goodies on your site, and so don't know where to look if you do have any. You are truly blessed to be able to draw like this, and we are truly blessed for you so kindly to supply us with them free. Many, many thanks. God bless. Love Angela xxx
