I am very pleased with my Gibson Girl blouse. The quality is excellent and the time frame in delivery was exceptional. They lived up to every thing they said the company would do. It was my first time with on line shopping and would highly recommend Historical Emporium to others.

Quick delivery was a must, and you came through where other vendors could not. I feel the product was overpriced, however.

I ordered a blouse which turned out to be too small. I emailed you and was allowed to order a replacement which arrived in time to wear it with my skirt to an event.

The service was great. The only issue was that our local post office never left us a notice that it had arrived. Historical Emporium customer service was able to tell us when it was shipped and when it had arrived at the post office.

The customer service was great. Initially the shirt was too big, I sent it back and got the right one in two days. I was amazed.

I had a small issue with this holster not fitting well. When you have a RUGER 7.5 " .44 Magnum attached and when everybody is loaded with weight the belt has to fit correctly. I asked for help to replace the holster and within a few days I received its replacement and I fell in love with it all. The weight is over 48 ounces. Well done!

Since no personal checks are accepted, I had to purchase a money order (resting the old credit card). Hence, it took a few more days to get the process rolling, but the delivery was still fast.

I enjoyed every aspect of shopping at Historical Emporium. I loved the full outfits to choose from, the huge selection, the fast delivery, and the customer pictures (really helpful!). Everything about my shopping experience here was great. Thank you!

Brothel Token
SKU: 000511
Costume addict
Aug 12, 2017
Kinda pricy, but feels authentic
I bought several tokens, each had a different saying. Some might find a few of the sayings un-PC, but the tokens are supposed to be 19th century accurate. I think the per-token price is too high, but overall I am okay with purchase.

Good enough, glad I purchased
The telescope itself is fine, heavy duty. But like other reviews said, the leather seems cheap and I think it won't last very long, it seems like it will start peeling. I have not figured out how to use the magnification yet.

Perfect fit, look
Definitely order by waist size. I'm a 28-inch waist, 39 inch hips, and ordered the size 6. I probably could have gotten a size 4 but the 6 will allow me to tuck in bulkier shirts. Heavy duty fabric, made very well.
Costume addict

Perfect
Very good quality leather. But like the other reviews said, this runs very small, so I ordered one size up and the larger size fits just fine.

Raved
Wore for a special retirement, part of which tied into the Seinfeld puffy shirt episode. Was raved over. The size xl sleeves managed to cover my arms, but would have preferred a long or tall xl.

Rathbone Vest
Excellent quality and fit. The pockets are deep and can accommodate a nice sized pocket watch. It goes down farther over the waist than some of the other styles, fully covering the belt, and the collar is slightly higher. I have bought several vests from these folks and they have all been excellent, but this one looks like it is going to be a favorite.

Aug 10, 2017
Great ... again
The coat fit exactly as I had expected and is very well made.

Fantastic
Love the Vest. My daughter was looking for an old fashion style for the Father of the Bride for Her upcoming wedding. I am 6'-8" so it hard to find something to fit. The XLT fit perfect and I love the quality and style.

Love this well made lab coat. Purchased this for my husband which will be perfect for his Mad Scientist Halloween costume this year. The fabric used is a good weight. Sew with quality. Worth the money

sing for outdoor LARP, holding up well
Well made, good looking spats. I use them for LARP and put them over a pair of Easy Spirit leather tennis shoes so that I can walk around on site with slightly less modern looking shoes that keep me from hurting my poor foot bones. The elastic has held up well so far (two three-day events so far) and I have gotten lots of compliments on them.

Fantastic deal! Just like the ones Till Lindemann from RAMMSTEIN wears! The goggles are aluminum with soft rubber eye cups and a fairly cheap elastic band that could be replaced with any other band of your choice. Very lightweight but high quality especially for the price. Used these for a gothic Halloween "costume". I might even try to use them while snowboarding in a blizzard to see how well they will work, I am confident they will work and turn all the heads!

Beautiful Piece
This cravat is absolutely stunning! Nice texture, and the red really adds a pop. Worked well with my rounded collar shirt, and the hook on the back hasn't failed me as of yet. Overall a wonderful product!

just right
I got this vest for my wife and it fits her great. she's going to wear it for the steampunk fest in Sept. the only down side is that under the arm there is so much fabric.

A handsome waistcoat
It was the perfect complement to a pirate costume I was assembling. Thank you!

Black Panama Topper
I have a number of round hats (toppers) and prefer fur felt. As such, I'm not too keen on straw hats, but wanted something for the warmer weather. I couldn't be more pleased with this hat. It is, quite simply, the completest thing -- well done!

The real Bow-Tie
This tie is more than I expected. It fits great and will be the one of the item I'm wearing to my granddaughters wedding. The color matches my Panama hat band and my shoes. Its a perfect tie to wear to any occasion.

sharp looking trousers
Great for a summer event, and great looking. They are right about ordering a size or two up. Jim can wear a 29 inch waist in jeans but we needed to go up to 32. Perfect with the suspenders. I think he will be wearing these instead of khakis when it's no jeans allowed, they suit him better!

soft and flattering
I was amazed at how soft this was. Like brushed cotton. I am 4'10" and with the substantial amount of hemming needed, it was still shapely and flattering, and looked even better with the wide belt they sell. I'm glad to have this skirt, I think it will be very versatile for different costumes and events. Very good price for the quality.

really pretty
I loved this bonnet. It absolutely made the very simple outfit I was going for. The quality was excellent. I have a very small head, and will glue gun a couple of combs in the front to secure the hat the next time I wear it. Oh and I will be finding excuses to wear it. This fifty year old couldn't believe how many times she was called "adorable" in one day.
