As always, a potpourri of wonderful finds.Click on the photos and links.

An oldie but goodie: doesn't every putz village need a house trailer and car? From the 1950's and a previous auction at SeriousToyz.com

It's followed by a fabulous vintage playset from the 2009 auction at SeriousToyz: the "Lone Ranger Ranch” Play Set #3969, 1957, by Marx---it sold for over $225 at auction.  And finally a page of Christmas kitchy goodies from the 1968 Helen Gallagher Christmas catalog courtesy of Mary B. Recognize anything?!!

A reader said she found a vintage putz house with silver windows and promises to send us a photo. That reminded us of these from Tom H. Click here.

A sort of "gothicy" church putz--and oldie but goodie from Howard Lamey; a friend says that in black, it could resemble the church-like structures in METROPOLIS! See it in a very pleasant shade of Chrismas red from start to finish here

Lynn's outstanding post Christmas Winter "Ski Village"--simply wonderful zinnfiguren and more.

  1. The green china pattern is called Holly Berry (in the catalog page) and from Japan. We have several pieces but have never seen the plates at tag sales, which is where we do most of our shopping!
