Vintage American Tourister Train Case

This is a vintage American Tourister train case. I have shown other, similar train cases. I ususally buy the vintage ones, when I find them, if the price is right. This one is RED! I have not seen another red train case, like this one. It has a bit of damage to it, but since it was red I had to buy it. I paid $2.92 for it.

Jarts Missile Game

This is a set of Jarts, in the original box with all of the parts & pieces. Does anyone else, besides me, remember these? Did anyone else have them? They have been banned for sale in the US, for quite a few years. So, they are somewhat difficult to find. You cannot sell them on Ebay. I found this set in a little thrift store, for $5.00. I had no idea, until after I had purchased them, that they had been banned.

Vintage Fiestaware Gravy Boat

Does anyone really use a gravy or sauce boats anymore? I think they have gone by the wayside with relish trays! Anyway, this is an older Fiestaware gravy/sauce boat. It's that really great vintage blue color. The one that is kind of turquoise and kind of robin's egg blue. You know the one... It's the color that everyone is painting furniture. This piece is in good shape, except for the chips on the bottom. It was only $1.01 in a Goodwill Store.

Vintage Big Eyed Doll

This is a vintage big eyed doll, on a stand. She is wearing a fancy yellow dress, in kind of a Gone With The Wind style. She is also wearing a hat and is mounted on a plastic stand. You can see from the up-the-dress picture that I paid $2.02 for her. Is she creepy or cool?

B Arhelger Tray 

This is a hard plastic tray with a gorgeous image of a green pear on it! It is signed B Arhelger. I think it is old enough to be considered vintage. I want to hang it on the wall in my kitchen, because I love the pear that much! I found this in a Goodwill Store, and I paid around $3.00 for it.

Vintage Aluminum Cake Carrier

Isn't this a great cake carrier. It reminds me of watching The Donna Read Show or Dennis The Menace. Maybe, Leave It To Beaver?????? Is it just me, or were they always talking about baking cake on those shows? I think my grandmother may have even had one of these. I just love it and could not resist it's vintage charm! I paid $4.54 for it in a Goodwill Store.

Kimax Graduated Cylinder

I think this was such a great find! I purchased it from a local Goodwill Store for $1.91. It's a graduated cylinder, that would be used in a lab or a chemistry class. This particular one is big. It's about 24 inches tall. I think it would be so great to mix martinis in it. Or, maybe, use it as a vase.
