As always, some wonderful finds, oldies but goodies and more. Click on the photos and links.First up, with many thanks to Pete Oehmen, photos from the recent 2019 Golden Glow of Christmas Past Convention--specifically an outstanding exhibit featuring vintage celluloid Christmas pieces. See the rest here and keep scrolling down the page once you get there!
It's followed by a great vintage toy---we're just crazy about this "Return Tram" tin toy made by Modern Toys and which was featured in Auction #55 some years back at Croton's own SeriousToyz--
This would be at home in any putz village. Wish they were making repros of this today. And finally a great 1964 contest ad, Go to The Fair With Sinclair! Again, click on the photos and links.Click on the photo.

The last outing I had with my Dad, who died very young from a heart attack. We had the best day, just him and me. Thanks for the memory. That was the best World's Fair ever but maybe I am prejudiced.
