Black Friday Specials and Vintage Blowout Sale

It's Black Friday and the busiest shopping day of the year..........along with the Vintage Blow Out Sale on eBay, I am offering a 15% coupon on any purchases from www.cemetarian.com

Today I'm adding bunches of Coats and Suits and Jackets from all eras. 1950's, 1960's, 1970', 80's and newer.





I'm also adding several holiday Craft patterns, it not too late to grab a sweet Santa Claus and get him made in time for Christmas, or if Angels or Elves are more to your liking, I've got several of them also.

Lana Turner & James Galanos

No, they don't really have anything in common, except for the fact that they were both in Hollywood at the same time. One designed clothing and the other wore it extremely well.

The only connection they have is the fact that I got this wonderful Imitation of Life Photo Album and the Simply Stunning Chantilly Lace GALANOS Dress at the same Estate Sale. And as I was photographing and writing the listings for both I couldn't help but notice the similarity of the Lace dress Miss Turner is wearing and the Galanos Lace Dress.

That's the only connection..............except for the fact that both Turner and Galanos were outstanding in their fields.

The album was sent to the jeweler who supplied the $1,000,000 worth of jewelry worn by Lana in the film and there are 17 photos in the album with the cover letter. The album is currently listed at cemetarian on eBay.






The dress is one of the most exquisite garments I have ever had in my hands. The craftsmanship is beyond anything I have ever seen. It will be available on Monday, Nov 24th on cemetarian on eBay.
