Also, WE tv is auctioning on eBay one of Princess Diana's dresses from the original Christie's auction. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=290148990656&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=019 The opening bid, $250,000. This dress was made by Catherine Walker. Make sure to click on the slide show. WE owns two more of her dresses and they are supposed to be on tour. Has anyone heard of the tour and where it is going? The King Tut exhibit in Philadelphia in mid Sept. Has anyone been to it? I would like to know if it is worth the trip. I was going to see the exhibit in Florida when it was there. A friend told my sister that this tour was not that good. I would like some feedback from someone who has seen it in PA, CA, or FL.
