Antique Cabelas Fish Lure Retractable Pin Shop Girl Pin
Antique Cabelas Fish Lure Retractable Pin Shop Girl Pin From LeapingFrogDesigns
Ok...Really. I have no idea what this is for. At first I thought it was a shop girl pin. I have several of those...A retractable pin that the shopkeeper would pin to their lapel or sash with a pencil for writing orders. But now I am not so sure. I think it is an old Cabela's pin that a fisherman would wear on his vest to hold fishing lures or something of that nature (I am not a fish person as you can tell)
Anyway...If someone really knows what this is...please let me know. Otherwise...I think it is just fascinating..and somewhat useful.

Freebie Thanksgiving PostCard 1921
Beautiful antique Thanksgiving postcard from 1921 (well almost antique)calling it vintage seems
a little disrespectful since it is so old) It was printed crooked so I am sorry for the tilt. Enjoy

Freebie Steampunk Image The Lunkenheimer Co.
I found this fantastic book catalog when I was out book junking recently. It is The Lunkenheimer Co. in Cincinnati Ohio. Look for more images of gages, and valves and chime whistles to name a few from this amazing catalog dating to 1912. Please leave me a little comment if you click the image. It is fun knowing where my pieces fly off to.

Nicholas Lancret Vintage Framed Boudoir Prints The Music Lesson and The Kite
Oh I almost fell over in a swoon when I came accross these delightful Nicholas Lancret framed prints. They are in beautiful vintage frames softly brushed with gold. As you can see they are both sealed. and the back paper is the most astounding fleur de lis. They both say Made in Italy. Both measure 5 1/4 inches wide and 4 1/2 inches tall. They are both in good used vintage condition.
I can just picture them on silk ribbons for hanging...The perfect little decorator touch to finish off a room and nook.
Here is the Etsy link--http://www.etsy.com/listing/60627996/nicholas-lancret-vintage-framed-boudoir
I do ship international...Convo me for rates
