Some fab finds today, As always, click on the photos and links.
First up, some cardboard house making inspiration from a friend of ours who is into all things mid-century modern--some scans from a 1955 house sample booklet she acquired awhile back. There are lots of putzabilities here. More coming.
They're followed by a fab Santa Reindeer Vinylite by Raylite Electric Products, 1950s, Large Version 1--WORTH RE-VISITING--Made of Vinylite plastic and a metal back. Measures about 33" wide by 20" tall by 3.5" deep. Over time the vinylite gets brittle. But for 60 plus years this is in good condition. There are a few cracks around the edges and it needs to be re-wired before lighting it. Again, click on the photos and links.
