RARE 1950s Vogue Ginny Rich Uncle Case, Strung Doll, Outfits, Excellent, NMI do not know if this is complete.I bought this about 13 years ago from someone who said it was her (at-the-time) 86-year-old aunt's case. I have the original email detailing where this Rich Uncle Ginny came from and will print it for the winner.
If you would like to see it before bidding, please let me know. Please ask lots of questions. And, if you need close up photos, please do not hesitate to ask. I have... no reason to question the original seller, who says everything in this case is original (except the dog and school case, which I added). I do not know if this is complete. This is a very rare find!
You won't find many Rich Uncle sets as nice as this one. Please read carefully. All sales are final and all flaws are listed.
