This can include wally dugs (china dogs), and wallies (or false teeth). This, in itself, is derived from an older meaning of anything fancy, splendid or highly decorative.

1860s blonde sandstone tenement on Argyle Street in Finnieston, Glasgow. I like the painted signs on the ground floor shop fronts on this building, especially Pearl the gold leaf shell oyster lady.

We know their vision for #PeopleOfColor. Whether you are a citizen or not, they want to put NonWhite folk into for-profit, taxpayer funded, labor camps. We should note, they have evil plans for white people too. #Tenements is probably a word you don't hear often. This is the end game for white-folk.
