The Star Made Me Buy It

Today's star appears in a late 1940s ad, the famed chanteuse known as the Incomparable Hildegarde, for Cannon Hosiery...

Two or three years ago, an auction I attend regularly had a TON of stuff related to Hildegarde (real name Hildegarde Loretta Sell), from either a collector, or maybe the estate of her publicist.  

There's lotsa her appearances on YouTube.

The Star Made Me Buy It

 Today's star is Betty Hutton for Bell & Howell...

The ad mentions her latest movie, Here Come the Waves. from 1944. 

To say she had a sad life is a gross understatement.  She had a very sad upbringing, and an interview with Phil Donahue late in her life is just heartbreaking.  In between she was in great demand in the 1940s and early '50s, appearing mainly in musicals, and light comedies

The first installment of the interview is here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFW6Y9s5Dc0

December 2023's Second Haul of Antiques and Untiques

 As always, marvelous marvels and wondrous wonders.

Wanna see?

    green sheep planter   SOLD

==========================================================================

wooden Burmese dragon


=========================================================================

     1960s groovy hippie mirror sunglasses  SOLD

=====================================================================

19th century fraternal pin

There were literally hundreds of fraternal organizations in the 19th century.  Which one this came from, I have zero idea.  There's also a remote possibility this came from one of the Naval academies of the era (but probably not THE Naval Academy).  An even more remote possibility is that it has some connection to one of the yacht clubs that existed then.

In any case, it would look very cool on your lapel.

======================================================================

We be having cobalt blue !!

creamer, sugar bowl, and a pitcher a little larger than the creamer.  Perfect for pouring milk into your cereal - so much more classy than pouring it out of the milk carton.

======================================================================

1940s Cameron Clay Products piggy planter


=========================================================================

men's shearling coat size 40


=======================================================================

1960s fruit plaques for your wall

That's it for today, more soon!
