[QUOTE="Jivvy, post: 711615, member: 8184"]I get that. But that there has to be a common primary source (otherwise they don't all have the exact same peculiar bit of drapery). I went off in search of another Beatrice that I was confident had the same primary source... and I found one. And she's in shell. So either the shell carver had the same primary source or he had Blue or Barn. That seems so unlikely, so there has to be a secondary-primary source. :wacky: Like an engraving. I'm betting it's an engraving. Probably seen in French publications and therefore I will never find it. :bucktooth: It's okay, I'm close to not caring, because knowing a secondary-primary source exists, is almost as good as finding it. :joyful: The mold for BlueB is pretty impressive... I do wonder why there aren't more of her. pfftttt! Do tell! For a long while I had a thing about plastics (jewelry) -- ebay descriptions made me a crazy person. Did manage some good deals, though. :hilarious:[/QUOTE]
