[HNW] Embroidered Jacket

[Debloughcostumes at aol.com]

Am not aware of any pics of this particular jacket.
 
But have you tried e-mailing or calling the curators in the textiles dept  
of the V&A - they'd be the ones to know for sure who's got pictures, if  
anybody has.

Sorry  for the cross-post, but ...

The V&A has an embroidered Jacket  (Accession  919-1873)

http://collections.vam.ac.uk/objectid/O80226

There's a  picture of *part* of the embroidery in King & Levey -- and  
the  front of the jacket and the side seam are up on the V&A website   
(referenced above).

Does anybody have a picture of the *back* of  the jacket?  I'm trying  
to get a feel for the pattern, the  snippet in King & Levey isn't big  
enough -- and the front, is  ... well, the front!
