I almost bid. It would have gone well with my '35 Girl Scout Handbook :)

Analieb...that is just tragic. I read about it early this morning but was getting ready for work and had no time to reply. I felt sick for you. Let's think positive...something better is coming your way. ;)

I'm so sorry you missed out on that - what a beautiful dining set.

lovely ladies - thank you for your condolences... i could possibly need even more support in dealing with my loss... perhaps we should all pour ourselves a stiff drink and raise our glasses "to those that got away"... cheers!

I've been looking for this pattern too. It's so cool. There's another flower pattern thats fantastic as well, from the same era.
I saw this pattern when I was browsing ebay today. it's beautiful and seems to show up a good amount.
Lady Day, I have a copy of this and you may have it if you like. I don't know how good a copy it is and I just don't think I'll use it.

:eek:fftopic: Sort of...

So, this one isn't getting away, I'm letting it go. Maybe my thinking is wrong because I'm a newbie but this was just strange. I saw an item that could be purchased instantly. I asked a question of the seller and they replied later that evening, answered my question and said it was being relisted as an auction with a lower starting bid. Now, I could have run back and tried to purchase it before they changed it, but I kinda wanted to think it over and if it went to auction, then my fault for hesitating.

This am, it's on auction but also still has a purchase now price...which is $30 higher than it had been! [huh] I just hate it when supply/demand, capitolism and free enterprise work against me! lol

I'm gonna tell myself the hips were too small anyway! ;)

I search by decade 193* etc... For companies that are no longer making patterns (dubarry, Pictorial Review) I search by name. I search for pattterns pretty much on a daily basis also.
