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

We love bringing you really interesting--and rare finds--especially toys! Click on the photo to see the "Popeye Transit Co. Hauler & Trailer", 1950s, made by Linemar (Marx), Japan, 13", tin friction, spectacular graphics all around, a rare toy in an even rarer box!

It sold for in excess of fifteen hundred dollars--and was featured in a previous auction at Serioustoyz.  Popeye is followed by a vintage Hershey's chocolate tin, and an oldie but goodie: The Double Chimney putz house by Howard Lamey.  Again, click on the photos and links.

From 1948--and too risque to post here directly(!)--an ad for those amazing PETTY GIRL glasses! (If you're offended by such things, don't click here).  And please, if the PC police object, take your comments elsewhere....
