Photo Number 473

Lady with lace foreign Grand Forks CdV
This is a CdV that I purchased at a quaint little Antique Mall in Grand Forks, North Dakota.  I love her hair, it is a style I wish I could pull off.  Her lace collar is stunning..there must be a special name for the lace?
Lady with lace foreign back Perhaps someone can translate for me?  I think it may be Norwegian.

Thanks for stopping by, do come again:)

Update from someone Anonymous:
Hamar is an inland city in the eastern part of Norway.

It seems some words may have disappeared?

Idas (?) Julekort = One dozen Christmas cards
smaa = small (?)
den hvide krave = the white collar 
borttages = can be removed
saa det bliver mørkt = so that it becomes darker

(presumably about the collar of the dress)
