Vintage Vanity Lady Brush Holder
A distinctly feminine addition to your vanity - this lovely porcelain lady is ready to hold your brush and comb in place. She stands 7 1/4" tall, 3" deep and 3 5/8" wide with blonde hair, blue eyes, blushed cheeks and ruby red lips - mmmmm. Her pale pink dress is ruffled and she glistens with a lightly glossy glaze. Her looks as if she is admiring her reflection in the mirror, one hand bent backward on her hip and the other playing with the strand of pearls around her neck. Quite lovely!
Condition is excellent with no cracks or chips. She is clean and appears unused. There are only a few tiny missing spots of pink glaze to note and a couple of pinprick bubble pops. The bottom is stamped in red "Made in Japan".

Porcelain Forget-Me-Not Dresser Set
Give her flowers that will last a lifetime with this lovely vanity set complete with dresser tray, powder jar, hair receiver, pin tray and hat pin holder. Each piece is decorated with blue Forget-Me-Not flowers with dainty yellow centers and plenty of green leaves. The flowers are surrounded by a tint of blue-green glaze which looks lovely on the white background of the porcelain. Each piece is in excellent condtion with no cracks or chips. There are a few normal manufacturing flaws such as dips in the edges but are glazed over. There is very minor loss of paint.
The dresser tray measures 11 1/2" long and 8 3/8" wide and each pieces sits porportionately on the tray. There are a variety of markings on the bottom and a couple are impossible to make out - those I can read are: the pin tray is marked "MZ Austria and impressed with "1128 X"; the hat pin holder is marked "Bavaria"; the hair receiver and powder box are marked "Weimer Germany". Since this set is perfectly matched - I believe the pieces were imported blank and then handpainted later. |

Daddy's Love & Other Poems by Underhill - Blind Writer
This listing is outside my normal range of vintage offerings - but too good to ignore! This is what I believe to be a rare book written by black author, Irvin W. Underhill, Blind Verse Writer. It was published by A.M.E. Book Concern which was a black-owned publishing firm that provided opportunities for black writers to have their work published at a time when white publishing firms published few books by black authors.
I believe the condition of the book to be good with wear all around the edges - see pictures. The first page contains a picture of a black man, presumably Irvin Underhill. It looks like it has been lightly glued into the crease of the book onto the cover page. This has caused the first page to tear. Of interesting note is the signature "Irvin Underhill" on the cover page in pencil script. A signed first edition book??? All other pages intact.
Some poems of interest are "Elegy to Dr. Booker T Washington", "To The Colored Soldier" and an autobiographical poem that tells of Underhill's life. |
