These are based on light-emitting diodes; the most notable advantages of LED light bulbs over conventional light bulbs are LED light bulbs last upwards of 50,000 hours. Additionally, LED light bulbs consume very little electricity. They are also shatterproof, run cool to the touch, and contain no mercury or hazardous substances <a href="http://www.perfectpicturelighting.com/antique-brass-lights-for-picture-frames.php" rel="nofollow">Antique Brass Picture Light</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13115941918048786551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6667325341931569889.post-55444638509182880292013-07-05T12:22:55.761-04:002013-07-05T12:22:55.761-04:00This is an example of a "whole cloth quilt.&q...This is an example of a "whole cloth quilt."

What we know about Anthony Bazzoni comes from Mayhew, cited above, and various London business directories and insurance records of the period.

I knew he was a doll maker and wondered if any of his dolls still remained. It is so interesting to read what you've done here, thank you so much for posting it on line.

We have a snowball hammer, use it on the barefoot old horse, who sometimes gets iceballs. Just a great tool for getting that ice off in a couple controlled swings, no harm to the hoof or horse. Sure is the right tool for the job!

I must admit, I began to daydream of the room having smells of aging linens and faint perfumes. The doll section of the Variety Unit also reminds me of a 'nooked and cubbied attic' that promises to keep the dolls safe from time and wear. Too bad we can't sneak up there to play: those antique dollhouses are sometimes too hard to resist! Thanks again, Trisha!

My grandparents subsisted on sheer resourcefulness and had a modest home. By the early 80's it had been relatively unchanged since re-furnished in the late 50's, early 60's, (except for a modern television that sat on top of the old television-cabinet-cum-table). Long ago the nooked and cubbied attic had become 2 bedrooms that were perfectly made up and untouched since their children had left home. In the 'girls' room was a vanity containing costume jewelry, pressed doilies, seashells, and a bureau full of antique linens, dresses and dolls. This picture reminds me of the dolls in that bureau. I always had the attic rooms to myself, since my grandparents could hardly climb the steep stairs. For hours, I would creep into the eaves to bring the china dolls to life in that time capsule of a room.

I was about ten; she was a year or two younger with dark brown eyes and frizzy curly hair just like the doll's. <br /><br />I last saw her before my family moved from Maine to Arizona. She had lobster; I don't remember what I had. Funny, I hadn't thought about her or her lobster dinner in years, not until I saw that doll up here. Such is the power of objects though.<br /> They have the ability to reach deep into our past and excavate neglected memories.scwoodburyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10188739421199231772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6667325341931569889.post-4788711737816697532012-11-15T10:08:08.401-05:002012-11-15T10:08:08.401-05:00We have been coming to the Shelburne museum for a ...We have been coming to the Shelburne museum for a number of years (from Sutton, QC, not far over the border from Richford) and this summer was the first time I visited this gallery. I was very impressed by the work of M. Pleissner and especially liked the re-creation of his studio, as well as chatting with the museum volunteer who was able to add to my experience. Wish we could come down more often! And we always seem to 'find' something new (to us) on every visit.
