(...) There's another piece that is an interesting dark bluish purplish color. See the plate used for the vanity table top in #5805 Princess Rosaline's Room. Does that match any of the above? /Eric McCarthy/ (25 years ago, 11-Nov-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.promo, lugnet.basic)

I saw this at the KB Kids retail store near the office today, and was intrigued, to say the least. I feel ashamed that I did not note the set number, but it was priced at US$60 which was out of my spending range. Any input? -Cheese (25 years ago, 8-Nov-99, to lugnet.basic)
