<p>[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 319320, member: 51"]I posted a question about this dress a month or so ago, little girl size 3T or 4T, 1940's era. Was intrigued by the "Kay Lewis Picture Mode" tag, not a whole lot online. Was getting ready to list this morning and noticed that there were 3 staples in the back near the top buttons, not shown on the exterior of the dress. Wanted to describe this properly for my auction and just took another look at the staples. Here under the edging of the fabric is a name, and I think it might be for a movie director. Tag reads: H.B. Carpenter. There is a "Horace B. Carpenter" that was an actor/director around the right time frame. What do you think? Could this be a child's dress that was in a movie?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]106201[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]106202[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]106204[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]106205[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
