40.00 USD

Vintage 1930s German creche display has a rustic wood stable, chalkware baby Jesus, wooden manger, and paper mache Mary & Joseph figures. This set could be the start of your vintage Christmas nativity or putz village display.

Condition: The stable is in very good vintage condition. The manger is in good condition in that it is not missing any of its parts. The manger is constructed from 4 pieces of wood with slots that fit together. The glue that secures the side slots to the base has come apart on one side. The piece needs to be re-glued for stability. I will leave this repair up to you. Baby Jesus is in good condition with some chipping on his halo. Mary is in very good condition. There is some separation at her base and some crackling on her paint. Joseph has a chip on his nose but otherwise is in good condition. Mary & Joseph are marked "Germany" on the bottom

Meaurements:
The stable is large measuring approximately 8 1/4" tall x 9 3/4" wide x 6" deep. Mary and Joseph are about 4" tall. Baby Jesus is 2" long.

Party Time For Boys and Girls vintage vinyl LP record harks back to the days when most children's birthday parts consisted of cake, ice cream, a round of Hokey Pokey and Pin the Tail on the Donkey.

A bit of baby boomer nostalgia, this recording of classic children's music from the 1950s captures all the party favorites.

The cover graphic is just so retro and awesome. Frame it and hang it on the wall. It would make a great gag birthday gift for a baby boomer.

This record album is more for show than for play. There is a scratch which may effect the albums full playability. The album sleeve has separated along the bottom, but is otherwise in good shape.

The album sleeve includes instructions for playing the Hokey Pokey, Counting Song, Here We Go Looby-Loo, I'm a Little Tea-Pot and the Bunny Hop. The sleeve also has extensive "technical data" describing the recording process, frequency ranges and how to play the record.

How could you not think "Happy Thoughts" looking at this sweet antique postcard? Kittens, a perennially favorite motif, as appealing today as they were in 1910. Add these cool 100-year old cats to your collection.

The postcard was the Twitter of it's time. A revolutionary idea that cropped up in several world locations in the mid-1800s, the concept of the postcard bears a remarkable similarity to our contemporary Twitter. Emanuel Herrmann, considered the person who championed the use of what was to become a popular method of communication, proposed his postcard idea to the Austrian postal service in 1869 through an article in the Neue Freie Presse, the leading Austrian newspaper (remember those?). These small plain cards without pictures or adornments were to have a 20-word limit including address and the sender's signature.

In 1861, U.S.A. postal service began allowing the posting of cards weighing an ounce or less for the cost of 1 cent within a 1000 mile delivery zone.

Postmarked on January 3, 1910 at 7 p.m. in Albion, Maine, this postcard was sent to Miss Eva Copeland from Ellen who wrote a note in pencil. The card is in excellent vintage condition. One corner is peeling up slightly.

Hang a piece of history on your wall. This dramatic Cold War era propaganda poster was a winner in the Marshall Plan European Recovery Program's 1950 poster contest promoting European unity and cooperation.

Designed by Swedish artist Erik Oelmebo, the art poster shows all the European countries involved with the Marshall Plan pulling together to accomplish "Samarbette for Fred, Frihet, Hogre Levnadsstandard" -- Co-operation for Peace, Freedom, and a Higher Standard of Living.

This poster is an original lithograph from 1950 and is in remarkable condition for its age. It was part of the estate of a graphic artist who collected all 25 winning posters in the Marshall Plan poster contest. The posters were all stored flat in a drawer in a climate-controled studio. The poster shows some wear around the edges with very small tears, but no paper loss. The colors are vibrant.

Artist: Erik Oelmebo
Circa 1950
21.5 x 29.5 inches (54 x 74 cm)
Printed in the Netherlands

I have the complete set of contest winning posters and will be listing them in my shop over the next several weeks. Here are links to the posters currently available. Please get in touch with me if you don't see the poster you are looking for.

Vintage metal plaid Scotch tape dispensers hold green, red, & gold Christmas holiday gift tape. Dubbed a "humble masterpiece" by the New York Museum of Modern Art, the Scotch tape dispenser truly is an awesome design.

These vintage Scotch tape dispensers date from the 1950s. In addition to the Scotch tape hallmark tartan plaid, the two of the dispensers have a decorative star motif. The dispensers are in excellent shape, and after approximately 60 years, the tape remains sticky to the touch.

The dispensers are marked "Minnesota Mining Co." which eventually came to be known as 3M.

Each dispenser is approximately 2 5/8" long x 1 5/8" x 5/8" deep.

The dispensers are in excellent shape. It's amazing that after approximately 60 years, the tape remains sticky to the touch although it does not hold well. The dispensers are for display as the tape integrity has degraded over the years.
