This past Saturday I went shopping at our local flea market. I went by myself, my Flea Market Friends could not go this weekend. I was really missing my Flea Market Friends....but I decided to pick up my favorite Starbucks and head out. When I got to the Flea Market and opened the trunk of the car, I realized someone had taken my cart out... thank goodness I had a shopping bag in my car. I was wondering what kind of morning I was going to have at the market....Was it an omen? What was to come?
Well... what came was..
Box full of vintage Little Golden Books and a few other books was the first find of the day...
My favorite Little Golden Book in the box...
It has great vintage images
Vintage boxes that I just can't seem to pass up.. I will use them for storage in the crafting room.
Honeycomb bunnies and little chicks...
And of course, something for Mr. Math...found in the bottom of the box full of the Little Golden Books....
Mr. Math loves Bat Masterson, as a young boy he used to pretend he was Bat Masterson... this book now sits proudly on a shelf in Mr. Math's man cave!!
It was a great day at the market...even if I was All By Myself!

WOW! Great stuff you found. Love those old books and especially the Bat Materson book. Loved watching that show. One Christmas my 2 brothers and I got Bat Masterson canes and other items. YES! I was somewhat a tomboy when I was little BUT I got dolls and girly things to. :-) Loved my dolls.
ReplyDeleteI got your Tag in the mail yesterday. The package was in really bad shape but the tag survived ok. The package looked like it had been ran over by a truck and stuck in a machine. Just had to glue down the lace and the paper pieces. They weren't hurt at all, just lifted up a little. To look at the package you would think it would have been torn up BUT IT WASN'T Thank Goodness. I LOVE IT! THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I remember seeing it on your blog and I really thought it was great. Now it's mine. WOOHOO11 You are so sweet to send it to me. THANK YOU!

Hey! Great finds! I see the book has paper dolls, gee, that is so fun! You know I go places by myself all the time. It's not as fun, but sometimes more productive. You have the cutest blog. I am following you now! Thanks for visiting my blog and your kind words!
