mug of the month

The World Series (or is it 'the World's Series' ?) is due to start soon, which brings us to the Mug of the Month, i.e.

The image is a vinegar valentine - got a bunch at an auction a few years back  - and reads:

                                        Of all the pests I've ever known
                                        You are the worst of all,
                                        You eat and sleep and talk and think

*** Sorry I missed the last two weeks, but last Tuesday my computer was in the shop, and the Tuesday before that I was bizAY.***

Today's entry comes from The Picture Show Man, a movie about the old days of silent movie exhibitors wandering the Outback in Australia.  A REALLY enjoyable hour and 39 minutes, you can get it from NetflixMOV.

another re-opening

In addition to my general antiques store, i.e. PeaceableAntiques, re-opening, my vintage clothing emporium is also back with sales of the marvelous and the eminently desirable.

To wit:

1970s wide-leg bellbottoms, never work AND with original tags

a hefty pile coat with...

plaid pile lining !!

PLUS, we've got 1980s couture!

wool Basile dress

Can't you see Tilda Swinton wearing this?

 I can.

We've also got Lucille Chayt, whose NY atelier was big news circa 1984.

Back in business

Finally, the move-related* agita has dispersed somewhat, and I can get back to my Etsy businesses.

Whoo hoo!

We got everything from...

cupid

to

a circa 1905 slattern who enjoins you to 

'Drink to me only with thine eyes'

to 

some nifty 1970s Homco wall food

to

an AWESOME Mid-Century Modern wire cat,

who will be happy to hold either your mail or your napkins

to

Miss Shirley Temple

AND MUCH MUCH more!!
