Manikin
(62 items)
This is a 24 inch 1940's advertising mannequin /manikin. She displays Princess Peggy Clothes in a small factory-made dress that you could order an adult size in. During WWII they were able to save on fabric when the war needed it.
I don't know she reminds me of a Coca Cola lady :-) She is wearing a tagged Princess Peggy Dress.
Made by Darling Co. mannequins.
Yes, she has that cover lady smile for a Coca Cola ad. The maniquin has that dress label which is a must. Amazing condition it is in, a beautiful piece of history !~xo
Hi Mani..nice post, a blast from the past, love your manikin..hope you are well..xo
Nice! That smile, the dress!

Nice piece Mani! Yes similar look to the Coca-Cola girls of that era. Her right hand looks like you could fit a small bottle in it!! :0)

The honky is hanging in. Better than hanging. I've been here so long, all white people look alike now. Trying to go to Carriacou for a change.
That’s an amazing, rare discovery, Manikin. Wow! I have been looking for a 1940ish head and neck, but they are just impossible to find. And the few that I see are so very impossibly expensive. One was just a photo (for framing) of the head display, that fooled me, that I thought was the head itself. :)
BB2 have missed seeing you or any jokes in email. I am hanging in here too xo
Thank you, Daisy, some of these are quite expensive but bargains can be found. I don't just do head or a bust they bother me :-) But I will sure let you know if I see a redhead for a great price. Thanks for stopping I appreciate it .
Mani, those "Murican" docs put me on meds that messed up my life. My French cardiologist straightened things out and getting back to normal. Some of my joke sources stopped looking around and using my stuff. Have to work on it. LUV
Just perfect. I love her looks, the hair style, the smile. Gorgeous piece.
