I haven't posted about my sweet finds lately. I had a pretty good run today. I found a pile of old books.
I'm a sucker for old books, especially old books that are as quirky as these:
The above book is from 1917. Know your enemies I always say.
When I read the first few sentences of this book from 1947 I just knew it was a book for me:
I found this old pretty painted box for .50! It's missing the hasp for securing it shut, but heck-it was .50!
I like kites. I like eyeballs. I couldn't pass up kites with eyeballs. I got 2:I don't have a reason for this purchase. It just grabbed me. It's pretty stinkin' loud for a little guy:
I can't resist shiny brite either:
These are 2 of the most pristine vintage slips I have ever found:
This is a gaudy vanity set, but it's oh so charming:
The last 2 pics are of my favorite finds today. I about had a heart attack when I saw all 3 of these old cameras:
This travel wallet just made me smile-it's like new. I guess whoever owned it never got to travel. Big bummer.
