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

Now here's an outstanding find--previously featured in an auction at Croton's own serioustoyz.com - the 1963 Matchbox "Fire Station" #MF–1, Lesney, England; attention putz artisans! This one has your name on it!

It's followed by a great 1949 ad for Holiday Affair with Janet Leigh and Robert Mitchum.  Set during the Christmas season, the film was not well received on its initial release. However, Turner Classic Movies airing the film over Christmas has led to it becoming a minor holiday classic. And finally,a vintage Halloween candy container from the 1950's courtesy of Bindlegrim.  (Click on the photos and links). And check out Bindlegrim's Flickr album of vintage Halloween here and visit his website here.
