Added Sue Halstenberg Print









This print is named "The Look of Love". She has not been listed on Etsy since she was done in 1995 and is not old enough to list. I still need to get her size information gathered but I thought I would share her. This print is not as big as the other prints. If interested in her, please send me a comment. This is not a numbered print but one of the few Victorian Ladies showing her face. I can not price the print until I get the measurements but it will not be as expensive as the other prints. Again if interested in more than one print I will ship the second and/or third print for free. 

Sue's work is incredible isn't it? Have you ever seen such detail in lace?

Oil Skin Western Duster SOLD


Three quarter length duster made in New Zealand. I have had this coat since the mid 1980's and wore it maybe twice in the 1980's. This coat is made for weather. A lot of rain or snow. In California we just did not get a lot of rain or snow. The cotton inside feels like flannel it is so soft. And the coat is pretty weighty and very warm. It has snaps everywhere to keep the water from seeping in.

You can get an idea of all the snaps in this close up. To clean oil skin you use a damp sponge. No washing necesary.


You can put the collar up for keeping water out as well. Has a velcro closing.


Close up of collar.

The pocket is very protected against the weather as well.


I suppose the top is made like this so the rain just easily pours off of you. The snaps in the back are for riding. In the saddle you will need more of a slit.


Close up of the back flap.

Side view. I really like the cordory collar. I think it gives the coat a nicer look.


The bottom of the sleeve also snaps securily closed.


Not the prettiest shot ever but trying to show you the inside of the coat. The soft cotton and the way the bottom is at a V so not to get wet on the inside. I am sure when wet on the inside of a coat, it is not very warm or comfortable.



Care instructions.

Leather Jacket with Belt


This soft leather coat was bought in the late 80's or 90. Worn a few times it has been sitting in the closet for years. I have several pics showing as much of the coat as possible including the small spot on the leather. I don't know what that is or if it was there when we bought the coat. This leather is soft like butter. Has a full length zipper and a belt.
