Chantilly Lane SINGING BEAR Senior Moments, When I'm 64 - eBay (item 310068068193 end time Jul-24-08 18:31:16 PDT)

This 22-inch high singing bear is dressed in a black felt hat, black specs, checkered bow-tie and a black sweater with the slogan, "When Did My Wild Oats Turn to All-Bran?"

His mouth moves and his head tilts as he sings "When I'm 64" by John Lennon and Paul McCartney. He's a Chantilly Lane Senior Moments Bear with original paper hang tag.

To hear him sing, press his left paw. To turn the singing function on or off, open the zipper at his butt and toggle the switch in the base. See and hear him sing his tune on video.

The hang tag front says, "Chantilly Lane™ Musicals. It all started with a little red hat. PBC International, Inc." Inside the tag is the history of the Chantilly Lane collection and remnants of a price sticker.

The hang tag back says, "For ages 8 and up. Warning! Choking Hazard! Remove all cords, tags & packaging before giving to a child. 'When I'm 64' Written by John Lennon & Paul McCartney" with the legal info on the song. "22" Senior Moments™ Bears. Made In China."

Vintage Cast Iron OLD ROOSTER WEATHER VANE Wind Vein!

Vintage Cast Iron OLD ROOSTER WEATHER VANE Wind Vein! - eBay (item 310068080244 end time Jul-22-08 19:08:28 PDT)

This 17-inch high cast iron rooster weather vane used to sit atop a bird house. It has three leaf-shaped legs, the four directions, and a proud chicken standing on an arrow. I see no maker's mark.

It was assembled wrong when I photographed it. The half circles form a ball above and below the N, S, E and W letter bars. They were reversed and now nestle into each other better. The direction arms unit can be turned, but not as easily as the rooster and arrow which spin easily.
