Yes as Rob and Monica put it--"Saling Season" is heating up...there's a lot of vintage goodness out there if you're willing to look...and so....
Without a doubt, one of the nicest vintage Christmas cards we've seen in a long time--most likely late 40's, early 50's...
It's followed by a 1938 Christmas window at Gimbel's Department store featuring Disney's Snow White...discovered in a vintage trade catalog.
And finally we came across these interesting vintage military models at the Peekskill flea market--alas, nearly all were missing significant pieces. Still, they made for a great pic!
Click on the photos and enjoy.
And if you like old department store Christmas windows, go here; these are from Scranton, Pa. They just don't make them like this anymore!

My uncle and I used to love to make these kinds of models, especially airplanes.
