MCCALL'S PATTERN BEHAVIOR

I was expecting great things but the so called humour was a bit childish. In the right hands this could have been a great little book. Don't waste your money.

Good book, arrived very quickly. Lots of old pattern images to see.

Not worth the extravagant price. It took 5 minutes to read the whole thing, there are a few really funny bits but the laughs only lasted for a minute and it was over.

If you appreciate vintage sewing patterns going back 70+ years you'll want to own this book. If you dislike those who are disrespectful to vintage sewing patterns with crude and vulgar remarks in the vein of a 12-year-old boy, I would carefully consider purchasing it.I purchased the Kindle edition and I suggest downloading a free sample to get an idea of what the book looks like.

I laughed the first time I opened it in the bookstore. I laughed at every page I looked at on the way up to the register and out to my car. Reading and re-reading it at home, I laughed some more. And not only is this a great humor book, it is one of the most perfect books I have ever encountered, a Platonic ideal of an illustrated volume.
