Nice link! Mine are some kind of transfer process, not hand painted.
I thought these glass slides were so unusual, picked a small box of them up at an estate sale for a few dollars. I found others online, they do...
Well, one question would be how long has the collector had it? If he just got it last year, won't tell you much, but can't hurt to ask. It really...
You'd get to know how a peacock feels in any case. Back to the costume... it was mine and I was planning sell, I would ask how long the owner has...
Oh my god, it's awesome! It looks like something a showgirl would have worn in Vegas. Did the former owner say it was from Mardi Gras? I enjoy...

Thank you SIS. Those are very similar, and the links were helpful!
Susan, thank you so much for all of those info and links! You had some of the same questions I did on this piece. Would this on be the same age...
