    Hi Belinda

    What a lovely photo.

    Must admit I'm don't know much about her.

    Wasn't she supposed to be a spy or something.Must read up on her,as it looks interesting.

    Bestest,
    ANNA.

      This is very like her belly dance poses. I've never seen this one. Look at that coat. What I know about her is that you pay a heap to get an authentic postcard or picture of her. I've been trying for two years. I've had better luck with Evelyn Nesbit, but she must have had many cards released. I do know that Mata Hari is supposed to have been innocent.

      Belinda, do you know a good book on Mata Hari?

      Best,

      Cel

        Hi Cel,

        I love her dress...all that beadwork.

        I wonder what colour it was?

        It's very sad that she met a horrible death.

        Catch you later,
        ANNA.

          It was an elegant era, wasn't it, Anna?

              Greetings,ladies!!!

              It certainly was a very elegant era....

              Oh...If only I had a time machine.....I would love to experience quite a lot of different era's......mind you,I think 1888 might be the first year selected!

              Thanks for the link,Suzi,..nice find,lovely pictures...especially the coloured postcards.
