I've seen that image done as prints sometimes, too, in around the 1930s.

I often wish I knew more solid information to share with everyone, but it's not always easily available.<BR/><BR/>Chyna- Oh, I'm glad you like little Alice, too. I saw here and thought, "I know that kid! I've seen her before!" It was a great surprise. And instead of being jealous, you and your husband just need to come out to Pittsburgh sometime, and he can go see the Steelers, and we can go thrifting!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064894231149440617.post-23783978098219135312008-12-03T09:28:00.000-08:002008-12-03T09:28:00.000-08:00The prints are so adorable.
