Vintage Vs Reproduction: How Different are Simplicity 1020 and 8654 || 1940s Playsuit

Have you ever wondered how the reproductions stack up to the original? Is the reproduction pattern worth your time? Well wonder no more! At least on this one Simplicity pattern.
Simplicity in particular is a great offender of only using the cover illustrations and using block patterns to approximate the vintage patterns but now I want to see how different those patterns actually are when the are all sewn up. I searched all over to find the vintage patterns for the reproductions but even locating the original numbers to know what you are searching for is sometimes very difficult. I settled on this 1940s playsuit pattern because the vintage one is just so readily available vs some of the other reproduced patterns. Which honestly means if simplicity wanted the original pattern to copy they could have easily gotten it.
