AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The prepared fairy is just under 16 cm long. Included are pictures and newspaper clippings about the two girls who caused a sensation in 1917, with images they supposedly took of fairies using an old camera. The entire exhibit is as fake as the story from back then. A very finely crafted piece of dream world.
