Nearly There

Okay I promise the pricing post and the post on what Etsy have done to shackle us are both coming. In the mean time here's a little filler of fun.  Here's an old photo which came in a lot of larger photos when I bought some antique albums on eBay a while back.


 

Look familiar?



I found the likeness instantly obvious- at first I thought it was a publicity still, but no- it's a legit Edwardian photo. baring in mind she's not wearing make up, but she is of the right time period, and she is holding a rose in her hand.

 This reminds me of the Nicholas Cage Vampire photo. I wonder if I can get a million for this one...

Oops,the modern comparison doesn't come up, and links to something else. But it is amazing -- I suspect there are only so many faces to go around, especially the beautiful ones!

That's an awesome Titanic find, and picture of Nic Cage is always welcome. Gutted that I'll miss the posts when they're made as I'm off oh holiday and I have a strict no Interwebs rule when I holiday. But they'll give me something to come back to.

Waiting for the next installment with bated breath, Penny. Further high handed changes on Etsy are provoking -- can't wait to see what you have to say, knowing it will be incisive and, well, trenchant!
