First up, another great ad from 1945 for Community Silverplate.  Just love the Back Home For Keeps advertising series this silverware company used.

Next up, remembering Alan Ladd, who died in 1964.  Ladd had his big break as a killer in the film noir This Gun For Hire (1942). Throughout the 1940s, his tough-guy roles packed audiences, but he is best known for his title role in the classic Western Shane (1953). Read and see much more here from our friends at European Film Star Postcards.

Ladd was fantastic as the gunfighter Shane. Here's a great clip of the gunfight with Jack Palance.

And finally, timing is everything in life.  A friend of ours has always wanted this cotton candy machine from Nostalgia Electrics as part of her July 4th vintage holiday display but couldn't justify the cost...we found it in a thrift shop for ten dollars---without the box---but it works!  Best darn birthday present ever according to the husband!

And finally, courtesy of Mark P, the 1970 Poloron catalog---see it in all glory here.

Again, click on the photos and links.

We've been having fun looking at an old JOHNSON & SMITH NOVELTY CATALOG...
