Here's what the description reads to the left and bottom of the photos...
"The employees of the Rhyner Dress making Shop in Oshkosh - shown here in July of 1893 - were a particularly stylish lot. The leg-o' -mutton sleeve had just been introduced earlier in the year, and already nearly all the ladies were wearing the new fashion."
"Wherever there were a few women, there was a market for the latest clothing styles. This rustic millinery shop stocked ribbons, nosegays, bonnets, shawls, and hats piled high with flowers and bows - just the thing for the fashion-conscious woman of 1893."
