Decal Bob


Dropped by a local antique mall on the way home tonight and turned up this little beauty. You might wonder who is this wanna be Bobs? This is the early version (1940's) before he became the version we usually know him as.

Mr. LP

Since last month was all about the Holidays, here is one that was waiting to be posted.





My friend Scott is always finding these nail aprons and usually they are just writing or maybe they have a workman guy on them. Last month he pulls this one out and well it had to stay with me. The size is too small for me but it fits on my Michelin Man.

Negative Disneyland

When ever I buy a load of vintage pictures I always end up with a load of negatives. Over the weekend I decided to take a stab at scanning a group of early Disneyland black and white negs. They came out OK with just a little tweaking on a few.

Sunday Score 1/04/09

I only bought 1 thing this morning at the local show so that must be my Sunday Score






At only $20 i was happy to get it. The globe is glass with a overlayed map and has a light inside which makes a nice glow in the dark. I think the previous owner was a smoker because the nice blue globe turn a dingy yellow when turned on. I will be looking online to see if there is a way I can clean the earth and make it a better world to look at in the dark.

Somebody

It's funny when people ask me what I am looking for when I am out shopping at the swapmeet. The day I got this I wasn't thinking " Ya know I can't believe I have not found that 17 inch take apart classroom body model"





You never know what will turn up that you do not need but end up buying anyway.
