The Flapper Hitty
"The theme was "This Side of Paradise" based
on the works of F. Scott Fitzgerald.
Most of the meal events and banquets had themes bases on the "roaring
twenties."--Dodi Becker

The Flapper Hitty came from the September 2005 Regional Conference held in
Minnesota.
It is marked on the back 1997 Design (which people may find confusing, as
it was done in 2006 from her 1997 design.)
It has Judy's name, but it was basically carved in Asia, and then Judy finished
carving them and painted the faces.
It was dressed by the region club members.

"Reg5Conf Souvenir -- this is the Hitty as presented at the Luncheon.
She is wearing a chemise, light blue dress with fringe, a long string of 'pearls'
and a white felt hat.
Notice the painting of her legs, they are white stocking with blue trim and
her shoes are dark blue with a slight heel."--Dodi Becker
