Description
Hello from FANCY ENDEAVOURS! I am happy you decided to view the wonderful things I am offering. Please do come back to my pages often because I am always on the hunt for more FANCY or not so FANCY products of past human endeavor to offer you!
A fantastic antique fringed silk or silk-like fabric souvenir pillow cover for your consideration. This one has a light pink background and pink rick-rack border and fringe. It is printed with wonderful images from around San Francisco, California and is captioned, "San Francisco, California" with a banner below that reads, "Fort McDowell Angel Island". There are large roses at the top on either side that are accented with handpainted colors. They flank a Sweetheart poem that reads:
Sweetheart
I thought that you would like to know
That someone's thoughts go where you go,
That someone never can forget
The hours we spent since first we met,
That life is richer sweeter far
For such a sweetheart as you are.
And now my constant prayer will be
That God may keep you safe for me.
The scenic images are captioned, "Berkeley", "Oakland", "Alameda", "Verba Buena Is.", "Golden Gate International Exposition", "San Francisco-Oakland Bridge", "Fort Mason", "Fort McDowell", "Angel Island", "Alcatraz Island", "Presidio", "Fort Baker", "Marin County", "Fort Winifred Scott", and "Gold Gate Bridge". A FANCY treasure you must HAVE for yourself or a loved one!
Condition:
There is a faint water stain on the front in the center. Also, there are some small spots on the reverse. This lovely old pillow cover is otherwise in very good condition!
Approximate Dimensions:
16" x 16" + 2 1/2" fringe
PLEASE NOTE: Any display stands or other props that might be used in the pictures are not included in the sale unless specified. Thank you!

I will gladly combine items to save you on shipping costs if there are more things I am offering that you are interested in and that can be safely shipped together. Please send me a message requesting an updated shipping cost quote.
Additional information:
To International buyers: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up. Please do not confuse them for additional shipping charges. We do not mark merchandise values below the sold price or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.
And:
Please keep in mind, I mostly sell used items. Therefore, the item may have some minor signs of use I think are not worth mentioning. I will always mention, in my description above, anything major that I find whether it is damage or a manufacturing flaw. If you have specific questions in that regard, please ask! I will be happy to give you more detailed information.

Regarding returns: Unless specified differently above, you are welcome to return your item for a full refund for any reason within 30 days of receipt.
If shipping to an address within California, a Sales Tax of 8% will be charged to the final item price unless a valid resale number is provided.
THANK YOU!
Shipping
For the most part, I use Priority and First Class Mail for lighter weight items and for items that may not require a box but can be shipped in an envelope. For heavier items, I will ship via UPS (if shipped within the continental US). Please be ready to supply a street address if you typically use a Post Office Box. UPS does not deliver to PO boxes. To save time, I estimate the size and weight of the packaged item and may estimate a little high. If the shipping and insurance cost you paid ends up being more than a rounding error, I do send refunds back to your Paypal account. If I underestimate, I do NOT request additional funds.
An additional note about insurance:
Ebay policies state that making sure that your purchase arrives safely in your hands is the seller's responsibility. While I agree this is actually a very good policy to ensure confidence in making a purchase on eBay, it has resulted in making insurance a requirement for every sale. Insurance is included in the shipping and handling cost for all items shipped within the United States. All items whose value goes above 0.00 and whose winner is outside of the United States will be shipped via USPS Insured Priority Mail.
Why "Fancy Endeavours"?
The name "Fancy Endeavours" came to me as I searched for ways to convey my love for the art and products of human enterprise in a smaller, easy to remember title. From music, architecture, and paintings, to ceramics, jewelry, modes of transportation, clothing and accessories, to the little gadgets you see in "As Seen on TV" ads and everything in between; the things we create and have created in the past to make our lives easier and more beautiful are evidence of free human endeavor and a tangible connection to man's history of advancement.
My previous eBay name "savvy*spyglass*treasures" was inspired by my U.S. Navy experience, love of all things nautical, and by the popularity of "Pirates of the Caribbean" Disneyland ride and the movies. In this name change to "fancyendeavours", I deliberately am using the British spelling version of "endeavor" as homage to the HMS Endeavour, flagship of Lord Cutler Beckett of the East India Trading Company, in the Pirates movies.
It has become fashionable by some to be disdainful (envious) of the creativity of others....to the point of wishing to eliminate it and turning "profit" into a dirty word. This disturbing trend will not survive. However, I wish to do my part to celebrate and remind anyone who does happen upon my little corner of the internet that without man's creativity, our lives would be bleak and hard beyond imagining. And, really, why shouldn't these talented and creative people, and those like me that find them afterwards, profit from our efforts? The things I am offering for sale here on eBay may or may not all be beautiful or Fancy. However, they were made by their creators for the purpose and intention of making lives (theirs and ours) easier and/or more beautiful. I passionately adore free enterprise in all its forms. I hope you will enjoy these offerings of "Fancy Endeavours" and what they represent!
