When a star dies, her memory still sells

On this day 42 years ago, the American actress, singer, and gay icon Judy Garland tragically died of an accidental drug overdose at the age of 47.

But her death did not silence her fans. In fact, her memory is alive, well … and even profitable.

We checked out Etsy, the online marketplace and community for crafters and collectors everywhere, and were not disappointed. Here are just a few.
