MM-6 This case holds a photograph on milk glass and a lock of hair. There was once some writing inside the front cover, a name or two, but that has disappeared either from time or someone who didn't want to remember. Behind the photo is a notation that looks like "Received Jan 30th 1872." The case measures about 3 1/2" long. Condition is very good. The case has wear, as you'd expect. There is also a small streak on the photograph itself. I've noticed that with the case open and sitting in my right hand, that streak is right where my thumb rubs if I stroke the picture. I can't prove that such repeated strokes caused the wear, but it's a marvelously romantic thought. Of course, all our sales are fully guaranteed. Price is $75 plus $5.95 Priority Mail and insurance. International shipping rates quoted on request. E-Mail Us To buy an item (or more), just get in touch through the e-mail link, or you can call us at 812-467-0191. (A busy signal is still common, I'm afraid since we only have one phone line.) It works best if you include the "item" code to let us know which item or items you're interested in. The code is at the beginning of each listing and is usually two letters followed by a number. We'll confirm that the item is still available, make sure we agree on the total, and answer any questions you wish to throw our way. Checks or money orders should be made "Forrest OR Virginia Poston". We also take Paypal (including credit card payments). We try to ship in one or two days after payment arrives, and we're generous with the bubblewrap and styrofoam peanuts. If there's something you'd like us to find for you, let us know. We're just itching to please you, or maybe that was Poison Ivy we got into. Remember that all proceeds go to support good causes: my spouse, our cats (see the "staff" here), our creditors, my auction addiction, and the plumbing project that never ends.

There should be e-mail links on every page, and the actual address is ginfor@earthlink.net Guarantee: We have a simple, "If you aren't happy, we aren't happy" policy. If you open a package and suddenly wonder why you bought it in the first place, you can return it for a full refund of your purchase price and the shipping one way.
