OK, not the best picture but it has been 12 years so this is a scan of an old photo. You can tell it's a Graco. I fell in love with the pattern of this Graco when pregnant, of course it was the most expensive Graco they had at Baby Superstore (now BRU). But it didn't touch the Emmaljungas, Combis, Apricas, and Peg Peregos they carried there back then. I couldn't understand why someone would spend so much on a stroller when you can get a nice one for so much less. So much to learn. This Graco I never saw anyone with back then, I once saw the matching Literider but never this one and I have never seen it since. Sounds weird huh since it is just navy. But it isn't just navy plaid or navy dot, etc. You can barely tell when I crop into the picture but those are not dots those are very simple line drawings of a flower. This stroller was plush, fabric removable and washable. Like most strollers back then the handle reversed which was a really nice feature. It even had the boot you see, a nice basket, easy to fold, nice canopy, full recline. BUT when you reverse the handle the front wheels didn't swivel so you had to steer from the rear. And it was only 3 months before the wheels started shimmying in use. And I dont mean a gentle vibration that keeps baby asleep. It was then that the horrible quest started.
