2️⃣5️⃣0️⃣ Did you know? The home of NSCDA MA is the William Hickling Prescott House. WHP was related to Samuel Prescott. Why is this important today? It was Paul Revere and William Dawes who rode to Lexington to warn of the British coming On their way to Concord they met Dr. Samuel Prescott. Revere was captured & Dawes lost his horse. Samuel Prescott was the only Midnight Rider to make it to Concord. These graphics were created by his Fouth GGD, for NSCDA MA Linzee Obregón Prescott. 🇺🇸

Queen of the jeans scene! This Barbie, housed in the NSCDA-MA Costume Collection, debuted in 1981 with a matching Ken. She has a fluffy sweater, her own brand of jeans, a satin belt with her face on the buckle, and some fashionable little boots. The box contains a catalog of the latest Barbie fashions (of 1981), and a postcard to sign up for the official Barbie fanclub! We would love to see rocking the original Fashion Jeans in the upcoming movie.
