As always, some wonderful new finds, special requests, oldies but goodies and more. Click on the photos and links.
First up, three examples of circa 1867 "French Villas' and such--some spectacular architectural inspiration for our putz house builders.
They're followed by a charming post Halloween postcard find; very faded, printed on linen paper, circa 1905, 1910----and then an oldie but goodie--Howard's "Slant Roof with Gable" putz house--based on a vintage made in Japan original...
And finally, a collection of tinplate vintage space toys. Again, click on the photos and links.
A FLICKR ALBUM OF GENERAL ELECTRIC CHRISTMAS LIGHTS--plus a video...
