First up, some movie ephemera: the 1940 premiere of Walt Disney's Pinocchio really packed them in.
It was the second animated production by Disney--Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was in 1937--and was added to the United States National Film Registry as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" in 1994.
It's followed by a great piece of musical "history"--the coin-op 1950 Band-Box! READ MORE ABOUT IT HERE.
AND THEN...from 2010...a great repro/interpretation of an early made in Japan putz house from Howard Lamey.
Click on the photos and enjoy.

That taxi is great. We used to love the later Checker Taxi Cabs since we were a family of five but those little fold out seats were horrible!
