Catalog: Women's Vanity

This hat is not perfect but it is so unusual that I couldn’t resist purchasing! The imperfection is it used to have a pink netting veil (remnant is still attached) and there is a spot on the brim that may or may not remove.

***Also included is another very unusual hat that needs a new veil.***

Beautiful hanky with pink and red Orchids (or could be pansies, I'm not certain!) with blue Orchids center!

Hanky measures 13 ½” x 13 ¾” and is in excellent, like new, unused condition.

It has been laundered, lightly starched and ironed (by me), and is from a smoke free environment.

This is another neat compact from the 1940’s! It’s made of ivory color plastic and has in-mold rose spray on lid. One side has a regular mirror with magnifying mirror on inside and rouge with puff. The other side has a mirror and pressed powder (puff and powder are missing) and it has lipstick in the handle. Great collectible!

This is one of the prettiest hats we have in inventory! The lower portion is covered with dark purple/magenta feathers and the top is covered with light purple color feathers. Has label: Sears Fashion Millinery, Sears, Roebuck & Co., USA.

***This is such a special hat that I will include a vintage hat box for storage and protection – I don’t have a Sears hat box but you’ll be pleased with the one I choose.***

This is an unusual color head covering – it’s purple! The ribbon trim is also unusual (ribbons could use a light pressing). Neat item!

Ooh, la, la – what a gorgeous hat!

It’s red with red bow, red netting, and red feathers – one feather has some black for added eye-appeal.

This beautiful hanky would be a great gift for Valentine’s, Mother’s Day, or a birthday! Hanky measures 13 ½” x 13 ½”, has a hand-rolled hem, and is in excellent condition.

What a treasure – this is a Rex, Fifth Avenue Petti-Purse! It has comb, lipstick holder, and compact – appear to have never been used. Has been monogrammed on little metal plate on front of purse – I believe the initials are S, E, C – the plate has some tarnish from storage. Purse is made of cloth, measures 5 ¾” x 4”. Absolutely super addition to a collection!
