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

As always, some oldies but goodies, special requests and new things too....Click on the photos and links.

First, here's a 1965 Buddy Hackett Christmas ad for Smirmoff Vodka. He's followed by one of our favorite politically incorrect made in Japan battery operated vintage toys--The Smoking Bunny--featured in a previous auction at Croton's own SERIOUSTOYZ--LATE 1950'S.

And from 1907, a very young Ethel Barrymore. Followed by the Christmas fireplace of Flickr friend Raining Rita--oodles of vintage dolls and toys---and sliced into a bottom half close-up so you can see all the details--including the Pineville putz houses on the right. Click on the photos and enjoy.


For more about Pineville houses, click on the link and scroll all the day down to the bottom of the page--they're circa WWII. https://www.cardboardchristmas.com/papateds/WWII.html
