Infamous Eleanor Dumont (later called "Madame Moustache"), traveling gambling parlor owner and Madame, "dealer of women" during the California Gold Rush.

Thank you so much for participating in the 18th Century Gold Rush challenge. Each and every image is worth our appreciation.

The World Civilizations room has become SFW only.

Here’s the link for the challenge so you can look over all the wonderful creations, like and comment on those you feel deserve it. If my arthritis would allow me to comment on every submission individually, I would… but I liked and liked them all. I urge you take a look as well. Consider doing the same. I think you’ll find that there is little to nothing not worth your like.

The next challenge in the World Civilizations room is Classical India which has already been posted.
