06-065. Vera Neumann
Scarf
The Vera Companies
USA, c. 1965
26 x 26"
Silk
Facsimile signature

Just one more Vera scarf with one more quick thrift route after work, albeit a very nice Warhol-esque pop art design in silk rather than the usual acetate. Pretty soon I'll need to stop documenting these finds for the simple fact that the front page will become clogged with nothing but Vera designs.

Found on September 12, 2006 in New Hope, MN.

Lloyd D. Mitchell said: Words cannot express how taken away i am to be reconnected and know that Mrs. Neaumanna design are still fresh and out there. I use to work with her after school when she was located in Ossining, New York. The reason i stopped working with her is because the office had relocated to New York City and because i was in high school i could not relocate. It is devistating to me that she has passed and things are not the same design wise with her gone since she was an amazing woman. :( Are there any possibilities of working iin New York city with her line in order to show my love, admoration, and respect for her, her dog cricket and her designs? Please...this is a serious e mail.
