Paula says - "These earrings are 'NOS', which means New Old Stock. They have never been used and are attached to their original card that says 'Made in the U.S.A. by American Craftsmen'." | |||||||||
The
Bell Trading Post was founded in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 1955 by Jack Michelson
amd his wife Mildred Bell. They employed mostly Native American craftsmen but
some were not. These earrings are definitely American made but may not have been
crafted by a Native American. Bell Trading Post sold Native American Indian jewelry
at various tourist locations in the southwestern United States until the late
1980s. Read more . . . |
