HarryCarter Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 What a treasure trove! This Drier person must have bought every big Lucy item ever on eBay. I had bid on Lucy's What's My Line? card several years ago when a bunch of the cards were on eBay. The "Lucy Carter Meets Lucille Ball" caftan was on display at the museum in 2005. I wonder if it was on loan from the Drier collection. Anyone know if the Elois Jensen sketches are the originals or the recreations done years later?

I would imagine that they are originals and not reproductions if they are from her estate. But Im not entirely sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it 2005 when they auctioned off the "wearing rights" to the outfit, causing a minor storm in a teacup my making it ladies only? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desiluforever Posted July 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 The caftan has made a few appearances since then. She could have had several of them made... it says it was her favorite formal caftan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desiluforever Posted July 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Plus the shoes that went with the TV Guide jogging outfit were on Ebay a few years ago, they were going for probably double what their estimate is for the pants if my memory serves.

HarryCarter Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 I can't believe she had one made in the first place. Lucy saw how good Ben's Ben's Ben looked in his caftan and she decided she had to have some made for herself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desiluforever Posted July 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Wow... I would find buying a lock of Lucy's hair a little scary. Lol... is it a piece of her wig? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a brief, unfortunate period in the Golden Age of Lucy Message Boards where having something with Lucy's DNA was all the rage. I'm glad those days are over and those strange people have more or less disappeared. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvsbway Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 This whole auction is fascinating. So who's getting the iconic polka dot dress? Some of the stuff to read is interesting. The visitation rights for the kids. Also that caftan thing Lucy was wearing back in 61'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The visitation rights for the kids. Also that caftan thing Lucy was wearing back in 61'? Hey... if I had $40,000 to spare I'd happily buy it! Oh you're right, she is wearing the caftan in front of the Wildcat sign, that means she must have had it for over a decade... now I think there was more than one.

HarryCarter Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Also that caftan thing Lucy was wearing back in 61'? I think Lucy and Gary must have just posed in front of a Wildcat poster at an event in the early '70s. That photo could not have been taken during the original run of Wildcat.

Luvsbway Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 I'd be plunking some money down if Eloise's sketch of the Lured shower of stars dress's sketch was in that auction. My mother in law watched that movie last week and remarked that my wedding dress looked so much like it. She didn't know it was my inspiration. Even though I won't be picking up any sketches this time I at least had the privilege to see her stuff in the convention auction in 97. That Hollywood Anniversary sketch is beautiful. Also the many thumbnails sketch. Image what the would have looked like in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C L A U D E Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Ok, who the hell emptied their garage? Beautiful items in there but I refuse to believe that's the Emmy dress, picture looks nothing like the real thing except for the gaudy colors, is it missing the sheer top part?

Brock Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Yes. The Emmy dress was sold within the last three years on consignment through Cathy's Closet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
