Did you have clear lucite on yours? I don't think i have seen a lucite whiting and davis before. But might have and just didn't know it.
I'm keeping it for awhile, actually....hopefully I will finish photographing my purses sometime in this century to document what I have as a part of my personal collection. (embarrassed to say how many purses i have).
I have a small but loyal following of purse collectors in my clientele (that is what i started selling on ebay) that I make sure are in the loop when I list something for sale, and send them a newsletter, so i generally get a pretty fair price for my handbags most of the time. I won't hold out so much on the clothing unless really really special as it does require more storage space, but purses I will hang on for a little bit or put in my shop at my price until I get it. Or if on ebay, i will wait til i have a bunch and then do a feature on one to draw and that has worked well for me too.
This one is going in "the vault" for a bit. WHo knows, maybe there will be someone in a fashion mag singing the praises of alumesh LOL!
