Judith 1818 Large 13 1/2" head will be limited to 500 pieces. Maddy Gordon presented the factory sample ( Marked Sample Only on the bottom) to me during the Saturday night program of the convention. Maddy stated that is was in appreciation for the work I do in helping with the convention. I want to thank Maddy and everyone for their support. I was completely caught off guard. I am happy to do part of the Friday and Saturday night program portions of the convention. I have fun putting these presentations together, and I hope those that attend get a kick out of them. This sample piece is valuable, and I have already been blown away by what someone tried to buy it from me for. Let me assure everyone that the sample piece will not be for sale at any price. However, there will be a limited edition of this piece ( 500 pieces) available approximately February of 2006. They will sell for around $200 plus shipping and will be the same size as the 'SAMPLE ONLY' piece.
Judith 1818 LV-121 huge 13 1/2" Piece. Pictures on right I took showing a normal sized cameo next to this mammoth head. Note that the picture on the left is a professional photograph. Picture of sample pieces on right look just as colorful as the one on the left, just difference in my camera shot.

Nadine has the complete line of Cameo girls including all the retired ones, and all of the new ones. She sells them individually, by the set, or you can buy all the Cameo girls ever made in one super complete collection. ( Yes she really does have them all ).
Cameo girls are available from several web sites. Check our web site links out from our main page.
Someone that I met last year is working hard on trying to put together a book on the Cameo Girls. He pretty much has most of the book ready and has been working on it for over a year. We hope this book gets published. Having authored several head vase books I know what a lengthy process this involves. When we find out more, rest assured it will be posted on this page.
