This is a very bold print! It is 100% polyester and has a union label. The size is not marked but I am guessing about a size 14. It fits like a tent dress but could be cinched at the waist with a belt. It is in very good condition with no wears, tears, or stains. 22 inches from armpit to armpit 56 inches long 15 inch slit on each side at bottom Shipping is for 1 pound. Great for a 70s party or Halloween dress up or anytime if you are brave!

This is an awesome piece of clothing! I don't really like the feel of the 70s polyester but this print design will sure get you some attention. It would fit many sizes because you can alwys wear a belt with it and make it smaller. I think it could even go up to a size 16 or more. I'm tempted to wear it to a halloween party or something but I have nowhere to go! View My Other Items For Sale

You are getting 2 vintage full slips in this auction. I am selling them together because they are not quite perfect. The one on the left has a tiny tear at the bodice and a small stain that I have pointed to on the bottom section. The one on the right has a slight discoloration and the shoulder straps are somewhat worn. They measure about 32 inches at the bust and are about 38 inches long. The lace is very pretty and they are silky soft and nicely fitted. Shipping is for 1 pound. I shop estate sales every week so check my other auctions and my EBAY STORE Visit My eBay Store for more great bargains, including more vintage lingerie and clothing items.

These slips are not in that fantastic of a condition but they are certainly wearable and they are just so nice and soft to the touch, due to the age of the fabric. I wonder what kind of project you could use them for if you didn't want to wear them--maybe use the tops in a pillow project? That would be interesting! View My Other Items For Sale

This charming bedspread is shown on a twin size bed. It measures about 86 x 104 inches, including the 2-inch fringe that covers 3 sides of the piece. It is made of a lightweight cotton fabric, very summery. It is in very good condition but has a few issues. The top of the spread (without the fringe) has some wear along the edge but has been re-sewn. There is one line I have pointed to that might be a pull in the fabric. There are no holes or tears or stains that I have spotted. The fabric is full of bright flowers such as was popular in the 60s and 70s. The tag reads Sears Perma Prest bedspread. Shipping is for 2 pounds. I shop estate sales every week so check my other auctions and my EBAY STORE Visit My eBay Store for more great bargains, including more bedspreads and vintage linen items.

I just love the colors on this bedspread! You could just use the fabric in other projects if you didn't need the bedspread. It is quite thin--it could work for a dress or top. pillows would need another layer of fabric, probably to reinforce it. It is just so MOD! View My Other Items For Sale

You are getting 4 pieces of vintage children’s clothing in this auction. The pink jacket measures about 14 inches from armpit to armpit and is 16 inches long. It comes with a matching hat. It is in very good condition with no tears or stains—just a little wrinkled! You also get an off white jacket with a muslin type lining and mother of pearl buttons. It does not have buttonholes but has thread where the buttons would be placed (shown in photo). I think this is older than the 1960s and there is a little wear on the one shoulder. The last item is a velvet hat that closes at the chin and comes to a point in the back of the head. It has a lining and a PA Dutch style design embroidered onto it. All is in very good condition with no tears or stains. Shipping is for 2 pounds. A great collection for your dolls or for the history of children’s clothing!

I thought I listed these items last week but what I actually did was put the picture of these items with the wrong title and the wrong description. I did not notice it until the last day of the auction, and apparently neither did anyone else because no one emailed me!

These are really very ncie for the age of them. The pink coat and hat is like something I probably wore in the late 1950s. The other robe or outfit or whatever it is , is very interesting on how it is constructed. It might even be from the 20s or 30s. Then the brown hat is very very cute and in excellent condition. If someone has a use for these, then you are getting a great deal!

You are getting 4 panels of these lace curtains, which would fit 2 windows. They measure 82 inches long and about 52 inches wide. I don’t see any place on them that is not perfect but in case I missed something, I will take a return if they don’t work for you. They are very beautiful with the scalloped edge and flower design that looks like a big doily. I am calling the color off-white. They look white when all spread out but they look ivory when folded up on a pile like in the photo. I think they would mainly look white when spread out on the window so I am calling them off white. Shipping is for 3 pounds. I shop estate sales every week so check my other auctions and my EBAY STORE Visit My eBay Store for more great bargains, including more linen and fabric items.

I didn't realize this curtains were so heavy until I weighed them. Hope the postage is not too much for you because these are really very nice. They have a nice quality feel to them. I used that part about the return because sometimes it is so hard to see everything little piece of an item before it is listed. I try to examine fabric in the strong sunlight but it is still very possible to miss something. Once I sold some scarves and I looked at them quickly and thought they were almost perfect. Then the customer complained and wanted to send them all back because she said they were full of worn spots. Well, when I got them back, I saw some very very tiny tiny places that were not perfect on maybe 3 of them. Oh, well. View My Other Items For Sale

You are getting both of these Josef originals in this auction because one of them has a repair. The smaller one looks perfect and is the February one with the matching birthstone. The taller one is very unusual with the drinking cats, but the bow on the back has a tip missing and a repair, and a small chip on the flower on the front. Shipping is for 1 pound. Adorable! I shop estate sales every week so check my other auctions and my EBAY STORE Visit My eBay Store for more great bargains, including more decorative items.

I was very disappointed when I saw the chip and repair on this beautiful item! But I thought it was still worth listing along with the February doll. I have never seen a Josef originals like this one with the drinking cats so perhaps it is rare--I am not sure about that. But these are SO cute! View My Other Items For Sale

Have fun looking! View My Other Items For Sale

You are getting over 30 pieces of clothing in this auction. None of it is tagged Barbie but I am pretty sure some of the pieces are from MOD Barbie from the 1970s. There are 3 pants in the middle that are smaller and these might be for Skipper. You get dresses, pants, a purse, a hat or two, some knitted bell-bottom pants, etc. All is in very good condition with a little wear on some pieces. Shipping is 4.00 for all. A lot of nice pieces! I shop estate sales every week so check my other auctions and my EBAY STORE Visit My eBay Store for more great bargains, including more vintage doll items.

I wasn't sure of the time period of some of these pieces but a few of the dresses and some pants really looked like MOD Barbie fashions. I showed another friend who knows more about Barbie and she thought "most" of them were from the MOD Barbie era. They are not tagged because many of that clothing was not tagged. A few pieces probably fit Skipper. I think those knit bell bottom pants are pretty cool! View My Other Items For Sale
