[QUOTE="In For the old guy, post: 200813, member: 3734"]OK, starting with last post and replying as best I can. Aquitane. No FACTs to prove migration of the beaded bag. Sorry, but I guess someone lost the original receipt . Or did they give them out in the good old days? Please post any good conservator with a contact and I'll be glad to contact them/her/it/him. Shangas. Natural sunlight is sometimes difficult to find around there lately. That's one reason the light box was purchased and set up. A flash was used as a test, and then shut off. A white matte finish poster board for a base. [U]We ain't got no plain rugs[/U]. And yes, a really big PITA. Bear - Your aunt probably made this. I think it may be closer to the 1920s given the bead colour and the fabric. I rather doubt she made the bag. Not that (as far as I know) she was too busy, but guessing she had better things to do. Yeah, 1920s would fit. But can’t rule out 1890s up to the 20s. Brad and Clutter – same as above.[/QUOTE]
