Okay that sounds wrong...but seriously you can buy a weave or two of hers...made by her mother! How much more personal can one get?
When Theda was an old woman, she befriended a little girl of about 12 named Joan Craig. She gave Joan several of her Cleopatra costumes, a few of her other costumes, her weaves, some jewelry, and on her death bed her most precious possession: A copy of The Clemenceau Case with her picture on it.

For whatever reason Miss Craig has decided to sell off these things at a live and online auction that has just begun and ends October 4th. Items currently range between $300 and $8,000 (ironically with Theda's most beloved item the cheapest). So if you find yourself rich enough bid on something. And if not still check out the items...the little stories are quite neat!
