I'm trying to get more out of my comfort zone. I might if I find the right pieces!

Gwen Lee in the late 1920s. How come so many gloves from this era had those three lines on the back? Just a popular decoration, I guess?

"And finally, if you have ever wondered about the seam lines across the back of gloves, they are called points and originated as extensions of the finger pieces on gloves, to aid in better shaping."

Yes! I've noticed those and always wondered about them, too. They were also common on men's gloves (a lot of times white lines on black gloves—or is it the opposite?). That's a beautiful photo, by the way.
