    Description

    Here is a gorgeous beach beauty or bathing beauty.  She's a carnival chalkware about 6" tall.  Her one-piece suit is dark green with tiny dark red polka dots.  She has brown painted hair (I don't think she ever had a wig) and beautiful hand-painted features.  She has no cracks or major chips; she has a few flaws from living and a speck or two of paint loss, but overall, she's a beauty.  She's from the 1920s I'm guessing, although this particular model of chalk was made into the 1950s.  I have too large a collection of carnival chalkware and will be putting up some very nice and hard to find pieces over the next few weeks.  All will be priced to sell and carefully packed.  Be the buyer!
    Please check the photograph(s); they are an important part of the description.  If you have questions, please ask before bidding.
