Some writers and editors even copied purse patterns from other purses and publications, which may explain the proliferation of certain designs. In June 1854, for example, Peterson’s Magazine published a gentlemen’s long purse pattern that was said to be an imitation of the latest miser’s purse style from Paris. Deemed “an unusually elegant pattern” by the author, Mademoiselle Defour, the black netted silk purse was darned with a “simple zig-zag pattern…entirely in gold [thread with] two very handsome tassels in black and gold, and slides to correspond.” In March 1858, Godey’s featured a “crochet purse, in colored silks,” which was copied verbatim from Peterson’s Magazine’s December 1857 issue. This blue purse featured bands of “flowers in crimson” and “leaves in green” with one round and one square end.
