went to an estate sale today and bought:
(1) San Francisco image accordion postcard from the 1950's (E. F. Clements, Mike Roberts Color Production)
(2) two plastic jiggle ball games (you know--the kind where you shake the tiny balls into their respective holes) also from the 1950's with awesome graphics (round made in Hong Cong, rectangle made by Comon Tatar)
(3) mini-fan in box with cool graphics (John)
(4) three rosebud matchboxes // these will stay in my home
(5) image book of New York City with awesome graphics and maps (Manhattan Post Card Pub Co.)
(6) fabulous metal waste pale with stripes, cherries, and cherry blossoms // this will stay in my home
(7) hopefully fully functioning plastic clock from the 1950's (Westclox)// sitting on my shelf at this moment -- I've got my eye on its time keeping abilities
(8) the coolest umbrella I've ever seen complete with retro green plastic handle connecting into wooden handle // definitely can't part with this yet
(9) spun brass filigree necklace with matching earrings.
the estate sale was super packed: tons of stuff, tons of people, lots of smells. perfection! thank you Yes Co. estate sales!
