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

We think that the J. Chein & Company toy manufacturer made some of the best American stamped and lithographed tin toys ever.  Eventually it would be supplanted by toys made in Japan.

To the right, a J. Chein church bank featured in a previous auction at SeriousToyz.com. This just cries out for "putz-ification"! You can read more about the company here http://abt.cm/1tPugtv

Followed by a fabulous promo still for WWII pin-up girl Betty Grable, circa early 1950's. Click on the photos.
