ANTIQUE rocking DOLL CRADLE, chippy green over OLD RED PAINT/turned c 1890- $36

If I weren’t so lazy, and it wasn’t a ninety-five mile drive, I’d go over to a friend’s house and take a picture of a cradle she has that’s almost identical to this one.  Her home is a showplace of “what someone with an artistic, primitive eye” can do. Sitting on a table in front of a sun-drenching window, she has her cradle filled with vines of some sort. They hang out all around, and it’s quite a sight.  One day, I asked, “Anne, who made that tin liner for you? It’s great, and I want them to make me one.”
