Re: Princess Dead in a Coffin
Coffin pictures used to be customary in the US in the 19th century and early 20th. I have one of my great grandmother, passed on down through the generations. Not the practice nowadays, however.

Re: Princess Dead in a Coffin
Has nothing to do with a princess. This is old tradion in eastern europe for a young, unmarried girl to be burried in a wedding dress. It was still practiced here in the states by immigrants. My mom's cousin died of leukemia at 19 and was burried in a wedding gown like this in 1943.

Re: Princess Dead in a Coffin
I'm going to out on a limb here and say that she isn't going to need that hand bag.
