MORE EVERYTHING CROTON'S FABULOUS VINTAGE WEBSITES, FINDS, ETC.

In the 1930’s, Kool Cigarettes used a very bizarre smoking penguin—often drawn quite strangely—in their print ads. 

We discovered this marketing campaign in a series of 1930's magazines we originally purchased from Croton's own Cornelia Cotton Gallery many years ago (111 Grand St., 271-6802) and we’ve been slowly scanning them into a set---click on the photo, then the link.

We’ll get the rest on soon. GO HERE.

Vintage 1920’s light reflectors—really fabulous http://www.flickr.com/photos/markdpodmore/5528372864/ 

Last year Judy L used some of these patterns, graciously provided by Family Christmas, to print paper for her smaller presents when she ran out. If you haven’t taken a look, you should: http://www.familychristmasonline.com/crafts/paper_crafts/wrapping_paper/wrapping_paper.htm
