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

Coca Cola had some of the best Christmas ads--and while the Polar Bears used in more recent ads are often adorable--we do miss the Santa Claus images of yesteryear; this one is from the 1960's and all that could be salvaged from an old National Geographic. Click on the photo

Now here's an amusing putz house project for the artisans among us! http://www.flickr.com/photos/picture-perfect-designs-jewelry/11958050773/

  1. That is one fantastic television set. True mid century modern.

  2. Back in the mid-50's my father got a "big bonus" for bringing in an important account. The old television, tiny and filled with white noise, was replaced with one of these "modern console" types. If I recall correctly, the screen was around 22 inches or so and my mom was in heaven. I also seem to remember some sort of 50's pattern etched into the side of the cabinet.
