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

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

First up, another charming children's cabinet card; most likely pre-1920's--and definitely French....more than likely it's a New Year's card, given the champagne bottles!

It's followed by another one of our favorite scenes from the 2011 vintage putz Christmas mantle of Antoinette Stockenberg; there are some exceptionally early pieces here--and of course we love all the vintage figures a.k.a. zinnfiguren. 

See all of Antoinette's outstanding annual putz mantles at  http://bit.ly/1wIjNm8

That's followed by PEZ offerings for Halloween---from a few years back. We love the Kid Dracula......And finally a new cutting device---can it really be this simple!  If anyone has tried this tool, please let us know---you'll find it and a video too at LEYACT HERE.

And in the Christmas Train department: AN OLDIE BUT GOODIE---Southwest Ohio/Northern Kentucky 2014 Christmas-Themed Open Railroads - Do you like to see big trains running at Christmas? Many people do, although most Large Scale railroads only operate during the summer months. However, some brave folks every year fight the temptation to take their trains inside when it gets cold, and they run trains in the weeks preceding Christmas as well.

ANGEL HAIR, HALOS AND GLASS TAILS---ON SALE--AT BLUMCHEN HERE. 

NEW FROM OUR FRIENDS AT EFSP--ALL ABOUT MAE MARSH--Mae Marsh (1894-1968) was an American screen actress with a career spanning over 50 years and over 200 films. Among her memorable films are D.W. Griffith's silent classics Judith of Bethulia (1914), The Birth of a Nation (1915), and Intolerance: Love's Struggle Throughout the Ages (1916). During the sound era, she played small parts in many films by John Ford. READ AND SEE MORE HERE.

A friend acquired her first vintage Nativity---and it's all Woolworth's, complete with the price tags.  Time she said, in these crazy days, to bring back some family traditions....

That reminded me of Paul Race's THE LINE FOR THE FAMILY STABLE FORMS HERE

Anyway she has now been bitten by the "Nativity" bug and asked for some links and inspiration: check out the Nativity Section at Family Christmas Online HERE.
