Vintage On-line Auction Thrifting

Hi Friends, 

 I'm so glad you stopped by today!

As you know I've been busy with gardening. Monday I decided to take the afternoon and finish a few posts I've been working on.

 I'm so excited to share a few fun treasures I received from a On-line Auction last week.
***
1st,
item I won the bid was this great 1966 Milton Bradley vintage 'The Lone Ranger' gameboard and spinner $6.25. This sure did bring back memories of my past.
I knew exactly where I wanted to display this gameboard...
In a spare bedroom that my grandsons stay when the visit.

Then,
I bid on a bag of Cowboys and Indian figurines, for$3.25
 I also, place the figurine in the grandsons room
***

There were a couple of Valentine card I won the bid on, the lacy card and paid $4.25 for the card.

The card with the cute Boy and Girl under a umbrella was $3.00


I'll be using these cards in my February décor next year.

***

Lastly,
 I bid on a mystery box for $15.00. I know your thinking WOW that is a high price. Well, it is for me but look what was in side this 1950's Child Size Shoe Box.


Look at all the Fun Trinkets!
Vintage greeting cards - 1972 Michigan Lotto card - 1974 Raggedy Ann miniature playing cards - Vintage wood Bingo markers and card - cute little metal toy airplane - 1972 Hallmark Lulu pin - Black Hawk type-writer tin, an other miscellaneous treasures.

I can wait to use these trinkets, here and there through out my little vignettes.

This awesome Centennial Bracelet was also, in this Mystery Box.
Couldn't find any information on this bracelet, but a very cool trinkets.

  1. I can't get over all the fabulous things you found, Vicki! I haven't seen some of those things in the lonest time. Auctions and treasure hunts are truly the best. You just never know what you're going to find! Hope your weekend is filled with all good things, CoCo

  2. That mystery shoebox was great. Was there a feather in the tickle box? I would wear the '76 bracelet on all patriotic holidays! Those vintage floral cards were beautiful! I can't remember when I last thought of Little Lulu!
