☼ Circa: 1980's
☼ Label: Stanley Platos Martin Ross, size 8
☼ Condition: great. There is a small white stain on the back side near the bottom. Along the upper back underneath the shoulder area, there is some sort of residue on the velvet. It's harder to notice in person, and photographing black velvet with bright lights always makes it look worse than it really is. See photos - price reflects condition.
