Thanks! Is it OK if I pass this email on to another list where I
mentioned the auction?
Thanks,
Fran

Fran, I just re-read your question and the awnser is No. Alas. the first
day sale will be a ton of jewelry ( Not mine), the remainder of my hats
(not included in the catalogue; probably about 50/75), books related to
fashion/costuming (my contrib to this catagory are movie/theater and a
few collection guides). Also probably about 500 pieces of vintage
clothing (1940s/90s), and my purses of leather, crochet, mesh, and
beading; a few compacts and pill boxes; shoes (19thC-20thC). There are
also other consiners with hats, purses, and other stuff related to
fashion.
The catalogue of 300 plus lots comprises about 1000 pieces. I saved a
few of the dresses and gowns that fit Me, also several of my best hats
which I wear on many occasions, and most of my significant lace
collection.
Yesterday I put together two dolls using some of my recent e-Bay
purchases. One is a Gwenivere designed in the early 1960s; the other is a
gorgeous Bru repro with red hair. I used the Seeley body pattern this
time and have your books at the ready for the wardrobe. I have found
that your pattern shapes as scaled can be used directly for dolls of the
18" scale. So, let my new career begin!

Three Rivers has not posted an online catalog of the first day of this.
Are they going to?
Thanks,

Yes Kathy , it is in a way. But my 'children' need to grow and get on
in the world. Some of them have led a very reclusive life...and that
is why they are beautiful. Getting on in age, myself, continuing the
care necessary for the preservation and Conservation of such a
wonderful collection will only become more complicated. And so, I
challenge another generation to take up cause.
