This was a very old paper #Santa with moving feet. The feet were attached with a rivet and they could be positioned so it looked like they were moving. Old time fun. #VintageCollectibles

This #Polaroid SX-70 camera was a real marvel when it came out. Watching the picture develop right before your eyes was real special the first time you saw it.

This Lehman amphibian tin toy car was one of my favorites and also one of the most valuable toys I have ever owned. It was made in the 1920s and the mechanism still worked. #VintageToys #TinToys.

This Christopher Radko Romeow ornament is being saved for a friend who is not only a cat lover, she is also a Shakespearean scholar. Great fit for two of her interests. #ChristopherRadko #Shakespear
