Hair jewelry (Wallingford)
Gifted
Rather a lot of pretty nice hair jewelry, clips, and other accessories. I had very long hair for a very long time, but cut it off a final time and donated it about 6 years ago, so none of this stuff has been in contact with a human head in at least that long. I'm taking the shaved head look into old age.

1959 Nautical chart guide (Wallingford)
