Hurry: EBAY Shipping for Christmas

Last minute speedy shipping for EBay auctions. Ideal Princess Beatrix, Nancy Ann Story Book Dolls. Did you know Story Book Dolls were made in Berkeley?

In the early 1940s the company opened up a plant in Berkeley, California (the first of its kind in the US) to create bisque doll bodies and parts.  The doll company thrived, even during WW II. During the late 1940s, Nancy Ann Storybook was the highest volume doll maker in the United States.

Vintage Chinese Dresses: Cheongsam

Maggie Cheung & Tony Leung -In The Mood For Love (2000)
 I just bought 30 vintage Chinese dresses. Excellent condition dating from the 1950's thru the early 70's. Silk, cotton, wool, rayon -the prints are fantastic. Priced and ready to try on.
Reminds me of the Chinese film In the Mood For Love, set in Hong Kong, 1962. Actress Maggie Cheung wears a different cheongsam in every scene.
