Hello

I have this satin draped vanity table with battery operated lights and a matching vanity seat but could not google or
eBay search current information on it. Does anyone know its origins and/or year ? A fellow collector suggested it may be a convention item. if so, was it a giveaway to attendees? Thanks.

I believe Laurie Howell made the dressing robe and PJs for the starlight Canteen gene that was used.

It was a centerpiece with the doll, but we all got one as a conversation souvenir.

So the gold movie marquee and the vanity were attendee gifts, but the doll came with the centerpiece? I wasn’t there and my notes show just centerpiece. Thanks so much! I can always count on you

The event really pulled out the stops for the attendees didn’t it?

Not the gold marquee, I think that was another centerpiece >>

I have the dressing table and that was definitely everyone. Not the doll in the blue lounge fashion and not the gold theater marquee.

Sandra’s convention in Hollywood I believe, I don’t remember the year. I think we stayed at the Biltmore, which hosted the first Academy Awards. We all received this dressing table and bench. Also Grumman’s Chinese Theater square stands with Genes handprint and shoes imprinted in them. Other table gifts included paper minis to go with the dressing table, telegraphs, a script and a few other things.

What have I got? I got no snacks and I got no respect.

Marcia’s site with all her fabulous photos. It wasn’t the Biltmore, it was the Queen Mary! A really terrific time.

The Queen Mary was just the Murder Party Dinner, I think. We stayed at the Biltmore for the con.
