Earrings with original cards, unworn vintage stock from about 1955. Some of the cards are dated with a location and have scribblings on the back, some have original price tags still intact, some are blank throughout. The cards are all mouldy, a couple in pretty bad shape. I have taken the earrings off the cards, you will receive them in separate bags. The earrings are all cleaned and ready to wear! Please note since the cards are already mouldy they will deteriorate even more as time passes, so you may receive a card that is in worse condition than when the photo was taken.
