$35 USDFabulous Vintage Mid Century Modern Pelican Thermos Red White Stars Stripes

Collectibles:Bottles:Thermos Bottle

Here's a very cool fiberglass insulated thermos by Pelican of Poloron, New Rochelle, New York, USA. It has a red and white striped bottom with white dotted stars decorating the silver-toned (aluminum) top. It has a molded plastic topper with red flip top closure and red plastic handle. The design elements suggest this is from the 1950s or possibly early 60s. We recommend using this for visual impact as there is rusting along the bottom rim as well as a few rusted spots here and there on the ...

$59 USDVintage 60's Green Plastic Stacking Chairs by Shamrock Neatway Set of Four

Collectibles:Furniture:Chair

Here we have this neat set of four stacking chairs of molded textured plastic by Shamrock Neatway of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Shamrock Neatway made a variety of plastic merchandise, the majority of which are small household wares, cups, picnic ware and that sort of thing. These are the first chairs that we've found with their stamp on them (see photo). Each comfortable chair measures 29" high to the top of the back of the seat, 19" to the top of the seat itself. They are 23" wide, and 21" from ...

$41 USDVintage Crosley Chocolate Brown Tube Radio Model 68TA

Collectibles:Radios

This neat old tube radio was made in Cinncinnati, Ohio in 1948. It does not work, and we have no knowledge of electronics or appliances. We are selling it as found since we were told there are radio restorers out there that are looking for parts. We have taken shots of the interior; we have not wiggled or shifted anything in it, so it may be a very simple "fix"; we simply do not know. The radio museum website says that there were none made of bakelite or catelin, it is listed as modern plastics. ...

$35 USDVintage 1970s Avocado Green Paisley Ceramic Hippo Cookie Jar

Collectibles:Cookie Jars

What a great cooky jar! in groovy olive green with hippie-approved raised flowers and paisley-esche swirls, in the shape of a fat and happy hippopotamus! She is 14" from nose to tail about 7" wide and about 9" tall. She is super clean, with no chips, cracks or flaws of any sort; but she's empty and ready for your next batch of molasses crinkles! She's kind of heavy, so shipping may be a little crazy; we'll ship via Fedex to get it as low as possible for you. The shipping calculator here does not ...

$11 USDVintage 1947 Donald Duck And The Green Serpent Better Little Book

Books:Children's:Better Little Book

Here is a hard cover "Better Little Book" by Whitman Publishing for Walt Disney Productions. The Author/Artist was Carl Barks, and as a COLLECTOR'S NOTE: it was reprinted from Four-Color Comic #108, Donald Duck and the Terror of the River, 1946. It is a standard size 3 5/8" x 4 1/2" ; it is supposed to be 1 1/2" thick with 288 pages, although this one is 1" thick, and we have not counted pages. We did get to page 60, though, and we noticed that someone used this (partially) as a coloring book ...

$75 USDVintage Ceramic Squirrel Figurines Chained Together

Collectibles:Animation Characters

Here is an adorable set of a GREEN squirrel with a baby squirrel, attached to each other with a tiny chain! They have big wide eyes with sweet eyelashes, pink tinted ears and they look like they came straight out of a cartoon!

$30 USDVintage Novena Candle Cozy Winter Farm Scene

Collectibles:Holiday, Seasonal:Christmas:Winter

This old candle has a wonderful winter farm scene on it, in the style of a Currier & Ives print, although it is unmarked. There is a golden toned three story farm house, with chimneys at both ends (indicating a Federal style design). There is a sleigh (showing the backside of the horse in front of it) pulled up in front of the house, and has a couple of people on the side, speaking. There is another visitor walking up as well.

$65 USDVintage Glass Bowl with Mercury & Red Reverse Paint Exterior

Glass

Mercury silvering or 'fire gilding' is said to be a technique for applying a thin layer of precious metal such as silver or gold (mercury gilding) to a base metal object; this however is a glass bowl (rather than a base metal), with a cut or molded bottom with a layer of the distinct super-shiny silver along some areas, and covered in it's entirety with a deep crimson translucent (its actually a deep pink when held up to daylight) paint. We are unsure of the exact technique to obtain this finish ...

Mom is out waving hello amidst piles of snow; the barn, out ...

$45 USDVintage Framed Print of a Victorian Lady At The Skating Pond

Collectibles:Paintings, Prints

This sweet print is of a pretty lady dressed in late 1800's wear, done in an Impressionist style (mid 19th century to early 20th). Although the subject matter and style are from that era, we believe this print was actually produced in the late 1950s to early 1960s and inspired by fashions and artistic stylings of an earlier time. The frame of this measures 10 and 5/8" across by 13 and 5/8" high. The image area is 8 and 5/8" by 11 and 5/8". The image is a lady dressed in rich deep maroon velvet ...

$25 USDVintage Transferware Alaska Souvenir Cup & Saucer Polar Bear, Elk, Moose, Walrus, Mt McKinley

Collectibles:Cup & Saucer Set

We LOVE the look of the natural tones of this deep brown transfer print on this delightful Alaska souvenir cup and saucer set. Acquired from a woman who had purchased it on her honeymoon in the 1970s, we're pleased to say there are no cracks or chips to be found on this: she said she had it displayed in her hutch all these years. It does have overall crazing (please see close-up photos). The saucer is 5 and 7/8" across, the cup's rim is 3 and 5/8", and it stands 2.5" high. This is a combination ...

$15 USDVintage 1940s Abstract Modern Poinsettias Christmas Holiday Gift Neck Tie Box

Collectibles:Holiday, Seasonal:Christmas

This vintage necktie gift box has an ivory base with a really neat abstract geometric print of red, green, metallic silver, ivory and royal blue poinsettias, candles, evergreen sprigs & holly! Little dots of silver look like snow or stars. The color combination of red, white & BLUE with green and silver dates this to the late 40s, or possibly into the early 50s. There are a couple of little spots on the bottom side, but the inside is clean clean clean. Add some festive retro nostalgia for your ...

$15 USDVintage "Company for Supper" Winter Snow Farm Scene Metal Tray signed Dale Nichols

Collectibles:Holiday, Seasonal:Christmas:Winter

What a wonderful vintage tray: a small 12" x 7.5" metal tray with clear plastic arched handles (with molded ridges in their centers). It has the most delightful early 1900s winter scene of a huge wood sled loaded with a family of 5 being pulled by a pair of horses approaching a snow covered farm with big red barn, windmill and cozy farmhouse! This is titled "Company for Supper" by Dale Nichols, and has served an appetizer or two in its time. There is overall surface scratching, but the colors ...

$55 USDVintage 1960s Autumn Flower Print Tablecloth Textile

Collectibles:Textiles

This print speaks for itself in warm fall tones of oranges, yellows, golds, reds and browns. Huge floral and leaf print in the mode of Vera or Marimekko, but not a signature to be found. Printed on a bark cloth type of cotton (not true bark cloth, but textured similarly) and hemmed on two sides with selvage on the other two. This measures 35" x 32". We think it would be impressive framed and hung (on the diagonal!); it has a warm kitchen or coffee house feel to it! We could find no spots, stains ...

This is a gorgeous woven tapestry measuring 46" by 19.5". It is in wonderfully muted tones of persimmon red, deep navy blue to charcoal gray, soft rich olive green, and dusky warm shades of peach. This is a hunting scene, with ladies and gentlemen riders and hunters on horseback, horns swung over shoulders, another drawing his sword. The ladies ride side-saddle, of course, and wear peplum jackets with their long skirts, and tiny "doll" hats perched to the front of their heads. The dogs are ...
