One of our favorites from Retro Renovation is featuring an amazing vintage red dinette set in its latest edition; read more about it here http://bit.ly/1H7pPW4

That got us to remembering this 1950's green dinette that was featured in a local shop some years back. In reasonably good condition at the time although it did have some wear and tear issues--and it might have come home with a friend--except that the seller was looking for an obscene amount. The friend opted to go with a repro instead and even with shipping, saved over $400! The moral here is that you can achieve a retro look without paying overblown prices for the originals....the red dinette discussed over at Retro Renovation, however, was a real bargain at $800 given its minty goodness.

Remembering Ricky Nelson who died this date in 1985:  Here he is with his family in the television series, The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet (1952–66).  You may also remember Nelson with John Wayne and Dean Martin in Howard Hawks's western feature film, Rio Bravo (1959). He placed 53 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 between 1957 and 1973....In 1996, he was ranked #49 on TV Guide's 50 Greatest TV Stars of All Time. Read more here.
