Ty Beanie Baby, Courage, with the American Flag on the right front shoulder. He is brown/tan in color and has black plastic applied eyes and nose. Toes are stitched. He has his tush tag intact but does not have his hang-tag. This is a nice quiet Patriotic collectible to set out to celebrate the season or add to your dog collection. I like using my collected stuffed items seasonal for decorative purposes and my grandson thinks that Nana is so cool because she still plays with toys.

Beautiful Pair of Lovebirds or Parakeets by Morton Pottery. I have many of the Morton pieces in my personal bird/parrot collection.

Color is applied by hand on each piece and as are God's beautiful creations, each one is different and special. This little pair are sitting pretty and are in front of a planter well or vase that will hold water to start rootings in. I lik ...click for details
Sleek and beautiful jungle cat. It is either a panther or a tiger. I think it is a tiger but it comes from the same era of the black panther TV lamp/lights. The back is a pocket planter. This is NOT a wall pocket but rather sits on a table top and would look awesome with a varigated ivy plant. The inside of the pocket is glazed so it could easily be a rooting tank for startings and cuttings. The water would not seep out onto a table top.
Lovely 2 piece Amber fairy lamp displayed. This will hold a nice size candle or the containers of oil such as on a patio with citronella. The pattern is vintage 1950-60's Stars and Bars although this probably was manufactured in the 70's due the the color. Anchor Hocking produced and marketed the dimestore pieces of the 50's and 60's. I have several pieces in my own collection, one of which was given to my mother as a wedding gift and is priceless to me. The pattern allows t ...click for details
Beautiful, sleek, shiny Television lamp from the so popular 1950's when TV's became all the craze. Everyone who was anyone had a television with a Lamp sitting pretty on top. I wasn't "anyone". Anyway, this is a very handsome panther ready to pounce into your decor for that added touch of modernism. There are no cracks or chips to this fellow and the light works perfectly. The cord is also in excellent condition. The bulb turns on at one end. I will ship with the bu ...click for details
Vintage 1970 Better Homes and Gardens 5 ring binder cookbook. Excellent condition for the binder. It looks like all pages are present but there are several that have pulled out of the rings of the binder. This would be easily repaired. The photos are very bright and fresh looking but are definitely dated for the 1970's decor. There are 18 tab dividers and allows for adding more of the Better Homes and Gardens pages. If you have one and want to combine this is an excellent way to keep ...click for details
