MORE FABULOUS VINTAGE WEBSITES, FINDS, ETC. FROM EVERYTHING CROTON

To the right, a fabulous albeit strange 1939 ad for Chesterfield cigarettes featuring none other than Errol Flynn and Bette Davis--"-The Private Lives of Elizabeth & Essex"--one of the best films of all time. Which reminds us, we've updated the MAD ADS set of images at Flickr--all those odd, politically incorrect, or downright funny vintage advertisements that we've collected over the years. Click on the link and enjoy! http://www.flickr.com/photos/22283683@N07/sets/72157626246149380/with/5316117550/

Do you collect vintage lucite, bakelite, plastics? If so a very interesting site: Karima Parry's Plastic Fantastic http://www.plasticfantastic.com

The Super Chief--one of the most beautiful trains ever http://www.toyconnect.blogspot.com/2013/05/train-time-usps-trains-locomotives-post_15.html

Interesting vintage train layout garden pieces--don't know how long the link will last http://etsy.me/19uJz0w

  1. Davis was amazing in this role. Everything about her acting was perfect. Flynn was equally as convincing and made a dashing Essex. It does seem odd to see them smoking in the little thumbnail in the ad though.
