I really want to start a collection of Enid Collins handbags- the one pictured above was an exciting find at New Bohemia (a vintage store in Austin). Enid is definitely on my list of most interesting Texas folk artists- look her up on ebay. Oh, and how cool is this Enid fan from the early '70s...her name is Maureen and she was the Marchioness of Dufferin and Ava (?). I have no idea what that title means but I imagine Maureen was somewhat similar to Maude Chardin from Harold and Maude. If you don't know what I mean by that then you haven't seen Harold and Maude which is something you must rectify immediately. Anyway, I want to be like Maureen when I grow up. Or right now. Most of my idols are elderly- I like that whimsy that can only come with extreme youth or extreme age.
