Some days there's so much vintage goodness hitting the mailbox, you just don't know where to start--so let's just dive in.
To
the right, AN OLDIE BUT GOODIE AND BY SPECIAL REQUEST, a superb piece of wind-up tinplate from West Germany--a
1950's clown on a motorcyle--possibly made by HUKI--and featured in a
previous auction @ SeriousToyz.
The graphics are fantastic and it sold
for over $339. Really quite amazing--click on the photo.
We're
definitely accustomed to happier ads for Christmas Seals than the one
to the right! It's from 1942 and features The Four Horsemen of the
Apocalypse--and the very real fear of a wartime increase in
tuberculosis. Click on the photo.
And finally an oldie but goodie, a "simple" loggie by Howard Lamey--click on the photo below--then the link for more:https://bit.ly/1o1Gk77

--Strange, little primitive Flickr set called JOLLY JOLLY Village---it's an "industrial" putz featuring among others, a quonset hut, as well as some strange architecture that could be 'elevated'---and one in particular would make a great candy box in my opinion....Check it out at https://www.flickr.com/photos/jollyjoll ... 3508099932
