Thank you for viewing. I purchased this at an antique shop but never used it. The vinyl is quite stiff, so it won't be flimsy and will hold its shape. I bought it because it's cute. For those who love antiques and vintage items, please consider this. There is some slight browning discoloration on the fingertips. As it is an antique, I'm not sure of any particularly noticeable scratches or stains.
