This website lists 45 actors and play titles along with a picture of their costume for the play. Some are sketches, and some are portraits. This is a great resource to show students what actors in England at the turn of the century were wearing for costumes. These pictures are from a book entitled, "Players of the Day" published in London by George Newnes, circa 1902.

This is an online version of the book "The History of Costume" by Braun & Schneider published from 1861-1880. This online version includes all 125 original plates and is an excellent resource of historical dress from antiquity to the end of the 19th century.
