MORE EVERYTHING CROTON'S FABULOUS VINTAGE WEBSITES, FINDS, ETC.

Jennifer theorizes that at least some Christmas putz village builders were born from playing with these little toy worlds. Somehow that theory seems right! Here are some more from the 1959 Sears Christmas Wishbook. Click on the photos.
