PHOTO SHOOT Spring Fever

While there is yet quite a chill in our northern country air, the sun is shining, trees are flirting with the idea of budding, birds are chirping and it's beginning to feel a lot like S P R I N G T I M E!

As the chains of winter slowly loose their hold, we boldly march toward certain summer with our best faces forward.

Feast your eyes upon the wares, ladies and gents, and let the warm, tropical breezes sweep over you...

{ Extra! Extra!  Hot off the p-p-pressss it's a paper dress from 1967!  Originally used as promotional merchandise by the Yellow Pages, these crinoline dresses look and feel just like paper, so consequently not many exist today, and those that do are highly sought by collectors. }
