MORE FABULOUS VINTAGE WEBSITES, FINDS, ETC. FROM EVERYTHINGCROTON

--What you're looking at below is not a Woolworth's store display but a fabulous Christmas view from our friend FunOldNewNina--whose collectible and vintage toys are right at home with the vintage tree. In fact, we've noticed a trend among vintage Christmas collectors to surround their trees with vintage and antique toys--and we like it. Enjoy! Click on the photos below.

--And check this out--Linemar Roll Royce--Back on Dec 18, 2012 Toys & Stuff looked at the companion to today's car, the Linemar Cadillac Convertible. The Cadillac and the Rolls Royce were two of the quintessential luxus autos of the 1930s and Linemar did a nice job of capturing their 'elan in these two toys. Both were actually produced by Linemar in the 1950s and both were available as separate sale or as part of the Marx Untouchables playset.
