AN OUTSTANDING ALBUM OF CLOVIS STAR CHOCOLATE CARDS, NEW FROM OUR FRIENDS AT EFSP

We love old movie star photo albums, cigarette cards and scrapbooks...and while we have seen a few of these CLOVIS STAR CHOCOLATE CARDS over the years at the Beacon Flea Market, we have never seen this many!

And now from our friends at European Film Star Postcards---an outstanding find...New Amit Benyovits acquisition: Clovis Star Chocolate Cards....

In 2012, collector Amit Benyovits started our love for Massilia collectors cards. Last week he sent me scans of a new acquisition, a series of 50 'Premium' collectors cards from Belgium.

The cards were produced for Chocolaterie Clovis in Pepinster, and while Belgium is a bilingual country, the texts on the flip sides of the cards are both in French (the language spoken in Wallonia) and in Dutch (spoken in Flanders). 

The cards were printed in Italy by Bromofoto in Milan, and the portrayed stars are all well known Hollywood movie actors. Read and see much more of the Clovis collection here

You may also enjoy looking at select scans from a circa 1940's scrap book (click on the photo) we discovered many years ago at "& ANTIQUES" (Cornelia and Amy Cotton) here in Croton. Click on the link http://bit.ly/2kRakcP

FIRST FROM 2017: "We were thrilled when Saw Mill River Audubon approached us with the hope of establishing a Purple Martin colony here at Croton Point Park.

NEW FROM EFSP, PHOTO BY MARTIN BADEKOW

New from our friends at European Film Star Postcards: PHOTO BY MARTIN BADEKOW

The work of German photographer Martin Badekow (1896–1983) has been overlooked for a long time, but his photographs from the Berlin cabarets have become emblematic images of Weimar Germany. Vintage prints by Badekow are auctioned today for hundreds of dollars, but you can still find Ross Verlag postcards with his glamour portraits of film stars for the price of a bus fare. READ AND SEE MORE HERE

CLICK ON THE PHOTO TO SEE English actor Warwick Ward (1891–1967) who appeared in 64 British, American, German as well as French films between 1919 and 1933. These included such silent masterpieces as Madame Sans-Gene (1925) with Croton's own Gloria Swanson.

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

With many thanks to Heather, AN OLDIE BUT GOODIE, we once again share this vintage Christmas card from the Hughes Family--believed to be from the late1940's, early 50's. Complete with bottle brush trees, a billboard and what we believe are Barclay figures! It's the first "putzy" Christmas card we've ever seen.

It's followed by a  great ad from 1919 for Charms Candy--Trim your tree with Charms! And from the 1920 Montgomery Ward Christmas catalog, White Polar Talking Teddy Bears and more! Click on the photos. Enjoy!

p.s. AN UPDATE FROM DC--ABOUT THE "PHOTO CHRISTMAS CARD"--

The wonderful Christmas card shared by Heather might be a bit earlier than late 1940s. The prominently shown toy car is a pre-war only LaSalle made by Hubley. They changed the car slightly for post war production.  The car itself measures about 7 inches overall and has nickel plated separate headlamp pods. It is the last Hubley toy to feature nickel plated components.  It happens to be one of my favorite toys and I buy every one I can on eBay. They don’t show up often.  I have at least one that is really over restored with chrome foil on the bumpers and grille and very shiny red paint that could pass for the one in Heather’s card. The post war Cadillac version was in production much longer.

ROMEO AND JULIET 1954 - THE LATEST FROM EFSP

New from our friends at European Film Star Postcards--Renato Castellani's film adaptation of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet (1954) has somehow fallen into a hole in film history. Despite a handsome production with some worthy performances, it is overshadowed by Franco Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet (1968) with Leonard Whiting and Olivia Hussey, and even the Hollywood version, Romeo and Juliet (George Cukor, 1936) with Norma Shearer and Leslie Howard. (Click on the postcard for Laurence Harvey and Susan Shentall).  Read and see more here.

Residents may have an interest in a letter to the Gazette from Croton resident John McKeon.  Mr. McKeon, who spent 40 years in human resources leadership roles in the private sector, has reviewed the contemplated contract for village manager.  He expressed grave concerns about the contract, as well as the Board of Trustees understanding of their fiduciary responsibility.

For those who don't know, Eastman recanted much of his younger Socialist leanings.  By the mid-1950's, he had come to believe that the Bolshevik Revolution "rather than producing freedom, produced the most perfect tyranny in all history".  

Also in 1955, he became one of the original contributing editors of the conservative National Review magazine. He also wrote a number of books and articles on the nature of American humor.

Eastman's last memoir was Love and Revolution: My Journey Through an Epic (1964). In 1969, he died at his summer home in Bridgetown, Barbados at the age of 86

A VISIT TO THE VERPLANCK PRESERVE AND NATURE TRAILS

Another beautiful morning in the Hudson Valley.....today a visit to the recently completed Verplanck Preserve and Nature Trails---a hop, skip and a jump from the Town of Cortlandt's Veterans Memorial Park.

First up, a stop at the Croton Dunkin Donuts for their latest offering: BROWN SUGAR COLD BREW.  Outstanding! No artificial flavors, naturally flavored brown sugar syrup added to the brand’s popular Cold Brew coffee.  Now it's sweet--be prepared--but the taste of the coffee itself is enhanced--in your editor's humble opinion.  It will only be around for the summer.

Ten minutes later by car, we were in the Verplanck Nature Preserve; it's a small preserve, but serene. There's a gravel and dirt parking area, a quiet lake--and a very wild pond that changes size with the seasons.  There's a small deck for observing fish, bullfrogs, morning reflections, the occasional heron and water snake.   In fact, the entire preserve is very wild, but flat, easy to walk, quiet, and a step back in time.  

Follow the rules to keep it that way--and stick to the well-defined  trails--that includes your four-legged family members.

You'll be rewarded with wild flowers and seldom seen birds and butterflies...and you'll avoid the poison ivy and other less friendly critters who also call this place home.  Click on the photos.
