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

--To the right a wonderful but very battered find--a vintage tinplate dollhouse, circa 1960's by Wolverine--it will benefit from a thorough but careful cleaning soon and will probably join this year's Christmas display.

It's followed by one of our favorite putz/train creations from Howard Lamey of littleglitterhouses.com: The Pine Mountain Train station. Click on the photos.

  1. Thanks for reposting the Baitler Christmas photos. I can make out the herd of celluloid deer, the plaster Woolworth's nativity figures, and the white Plasticville picket fence and several other details that establish that they had been collecting things for the putz for quite a while.
