    We loaned ten bathing suits to the Esse purse museum in Little Rock Arkansas for a summer show and they just sent me some photos of the set up. Here are the 1930s to the 1990s ones:

    Thanks for sharing! I have a similar fabric purse like the top left hand one on the 30s display. The first time I have seen another one. I thought it was handmade. Mine is bark cloth

    I like! Especially the small props and accessories to complete the scenes.

    The exhibit is open now - I can post them on the public side, or do you want to change this listing to a public listing?
