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

As always, some oldies but goodies, special requests and fun finds.  Click on the photos and links.

With Valentine's Day around the corner, we thought you'd enjoy this 1939 "McCall Magazine Style" photo (no copyright restrictions). Love the pin!

It's followed by a children's record of Irving Berlin's White Christmas--1953--performed by among others, The Mitch Miller Orchestra and The Sandpipers! Love the graphics.

That's followed by another scan from the 1936 Woodwell Holiday Catalog--love "The Crayon Garage".   And finally, a scene from Matthew Und's 2011 Valentine putz village; the simplicity of his crafted houses adds to the overall charm.  Again, click on the photos and links.

 

One of our favorite faux flattie figures from Howard Lamey, The Snowman; a good starter project; more here.

Fun 50's tableware stuff being made today, including Coca-Cola items; click here

Oooohhh--look what Lisa found--It's a repro of the 40's Modern Toys Christmas Crossroads Classic train set - and yes you just know we ordered it! Click here - perfect putz scene size---but not inexpensive.

By special request--Howard Lamey's "how-to" on making faux vintage feather trees--using an alternative to feathers--click here 

BLUMCHEN has some gorgeous religious themed "scraps" from Europe; check them out here. 

For you all mid-century modern putzers out there, and model train people too, an outstanding K-line 7-11 convenience store: http://toyconnect.blogspot.com/2011/07/k-line-k-4102-7-11-convenience-store.html

One of the best silicon mold ETSY shops I have ever come across---lots of variety--and many items suitable for putz applications--the name of the shop is the MOLD MUSE.
