We always feel like we've accomplished something when we are finally able to locate an identification for an artifact in our collection.
Numerous years ago, The CFA Foundation purchased photos and negatives of a White Persian from an online sale. They arrived with a letter from Francine Puckett of Eagle Creek, Oregon, dated 1958, requesting prints of the photograph. Sadly, no identification of the cat, just mention of "the white cat from the Portland show".
Recently, while scanning the 1958 CFA Yearbook, lo and behold, there is the photo in an ad for Francine cattery. The cat is Quad Ch FRANCINE LITTLE PRINCESS, a blue-eyed white, born April 24, 1956, registered in both ACFA and CFA.
