<p>[QUOTE="CheersDears, post: 326630, member: 2131"]I paid way too much for this -- just got into a bidding war and thought it was original painting. Now I think it's just extensively hand-coloured. But is it a dance-card holder and how old do you reckon? Please say "Very old" and "Worth lots". <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> I think the party girl might show one picture[ATTACH=full]109010[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]109011[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]109012[/ATTACH] if loitering hopefully and the other if her dance card was full. The inner envelope is embossed card. The case is thin wood held together with soft, thin leather. It's nicely made but I imagine wasn't used by grand dames or the upper echelons. Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
