Very Old Children's Shoes
Early 40's Coat
Check out the embossed-looking leaf designs, the wavy lines the buttons create, and the pert little shape! So cute!
Civil War Era Girl's Dress
The crazy pattern on this has an almost early 60's op art feel, with the floating cubes, and then it also looks like coral.
Oh-So-Pretty Late 30's Garden Party Dress
This dress went for a lot. It's just such a pretty, wearable, flattering style. People always think of vintage as fussy, but it's not always the case.
40's Dancing Shoes
These sparkly, vampy platforms are so Abba/disco queen, but they're from the 1940's.
30's Drapey Blouse
Even simple garments were constructed so beautifully!

60's Spiderweb Dress
80's Jaws T-shirt
