A Vintage Appeal

Helen Maclean of Helen Maclean Pin Up photography and Nicole McErlain of Bonnie Rose vintage clothing have organised a fundraising event this Thursday for the Queensland flood victims.

A large number of businesses in the local vintage community have contributed something, including Circa – we’re donating two signed copies of my book “Love Vintage”. I hope you can make it – the line up is great, and I’m sure I don’t need to tell you what a very worthy cause this is – and there are some wonderful prizes on offer.

Here’s the blurb from the Facebook page –

Auctioning ORIGINAL VINTAGE pieces, new RETRO REPRODUCTIONS from Melbourne designers, loads of ACCESSORIES and even a car service. If all you have is $10 to spare, that’ll get you in the door with a chance to win one of many raffle prizes and be entertained by BURLESQUE PERFORMERS and music by MOJO JUJU and THE DEATH RATTLES.

$10 entry INCLUDES 2 raffle tix
pre-purchase online www.helenmclean.com.au or at the door
