It's great to have a little sis who shares your love for vintage. And a sis who knows instinctively what makes your heart skip a beat. This wonderful vintage hanky is a perfect example. Petunia Camellia gave this to me last Christmas. I must say that I was verrrrry pleased.
Years ago I started to pick up vintage early Southern California items. Items intertwined with my home state and Mexican heritage. Click HERE to see an earlier post I did showing some of my vintage dollies in all their bright and colorful get ups. These types of things were all the rage around the 30-50's.
This cute little hanky is so wonderfully detailed. I do believe that I squealed with glee upon first seeing it. Hand painted...
Delicate buttons on his boots. Gently lifting her skirt reveals shapely tiny legs...
Pretty and rosy cheeked...
The underside...
Hand edged and hand embellished...
Guess my little sis is a keeper.
