This Pyrex robbin's egg blue opalware bowl has a white rim which offsets the light blue of the main body. It was made for a short time from 1966-68, making it a harder item to add to your collection.

Condition is good, though having been used often, it bears many scratches. Yet given its scarcity, it would be a nice filler piece until a pristine version was found.

Vintage splendor awaits you when you take home these 4 colored Pyrex nesting opalware bowls from the 1950s. The blue, red, green and yellow bowls evoke the days of Howdy Doody, Elvis, and pink Cadillacs.

The volumes are 1 1/2 pint, 1 1/2 quarts, 2 1/2 quarts, and 4 quarts. The 3 larger bowls do not have the well known 401-404 model number present on so many of these bowls, telling us that they are from the 1940s and rather rare...

Condition is excellent but I cannot make affirmations about the originality of the paint.

The decoy is unsigned and dates to mid 20th C. Its previous owner stated that it came from Louisville, Kentucky...

This stylish basket weave purse was quite the rage during the 1950s when Dorset Rex marketed this patented purse during the Eisenhower years. The patent was actually issued in late 1949, after which a wide range of purses entered the market. The Dorset Rex tag tells us that the purse was made after 1951, thus we date it c. 1955.

This purse is gold with reddish-brown, possibly deep mauve, lucite top which closes with an S-hooked clasp. The horse shoe handle rotates freely on pins...

This American made beauty was issued by Lionel Trains in 1954 as a replacement for its 394 version of the Rotating Aircraft Beacon. The red paint and black plaque with silver lettering identifies this variation as A which is probably the earliest variant.

Condition is fair with loss of the rotating housing being its chief defect. However, it does have the original lightbulb. Minor paint losses, dust, and dirt have settled on the grand beacon...
