'65 JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #37 Crossover Comic XLNT! - eBay (item 310049131164 end time May-15-08 18:50:13 PDT) This Justice League of America #37 was a Justice Society crossover issue from August, 1965. It has the first Silver Age appearance of Mr. Terrific. Classic Gardner Fox story. We don't know what artist did this issue.
The front cover shows The Green Lantern, Doctor Fate, Mr. Terrific, The Flash, and The Atom battling a living lightning bolt! This is an excellent unread issue and very collectible copy. See details below.
This copy of Justice League #37 has been in our personal collection since the time it appeared on the newsstand 43 years ago.
Vintage White and Gold BEADED WRIST BAG Zipper, Mirror! - eBay (item 310049108357 end time May-15-08 17:17:09 PDT) This small white and gold beaded bag can be worn on your wrist, because it has a belt on the back (seen in first and last pictures). It closes with a metal zipper with an art deco tab and a patent number. The design on the tab might be an "M" but I'm not sure. Otherwise there's no maker's mark.
Inside is satin lining with a pocket holding a double mirror that's showing its age. Three of the eight big beads are missing. A few of the seed beads of this vintage white and gold beaded wrist bag are missing and some are stained.
2 Wooden FISHING KITTIES IN BOAT Colorful Cats, Fish! - eBay (item 310047870952 end time May-11-08 20:20:12 PDT) Do you like fishing kitties? These two cats in a boat have a catch on the tiger-striped cat's pole. The black dotted cat's pole is missing. A label on the back of the boat says, "Made in Indonesia."
The cats and boat are lightweight, so they might be carved out of balsa wood. It's hard to tell under all the colorful paint.
Do these two cats in a fishing boat make you smile?
White Ceramic Cat in Sewing Basket w/ Yarn COOKIE JAR! - eBay (item 310047879972 end time May-11-08 21:19:42 PDT) Do you like cat cookie jars? This white kitten with yellow eyes is lounging in a woven sewing basket amidst a thimble, spool of thread, buttons and a ball of yarn. There's no maker's mark on this ceramic cookie jar.
The cat's head and front legs form the lid. It would be a good jar for smaller cookies as I'm not sure you could get your paws on a big cookie and get it out. The jar mouth is only about 2 1/2 by 3 inches.
The jar part came out of the mold with numerous tiny air bubbles and both parts have numerous minor chips, but this kitty cookie jar is still cute.
Brass Kneeling African Woman BOTTLE OPENER 4.5-Inches! - eBay (item 310047558947 end time May-10-08 17:41:24 PDT) This bottle opener is a kneeling African woman dressed in nothing but a high wire neck decoration, long skirt and upswept hairdo. She's sleek and has an attractive feline face.
She looks like a figurine, small and heavy, black and likely brass, just large enough to nicely fit your hand. There is no maker's mark. The opener of this African woman bottle opener is in the base.
Old Unused TINY CHARLEY PUNCHBOARD Cigarette Jackpot! - eBay (item 310047556343 end time May-10-08 17:25:35 PDT) This unused vintage punchboard says, "Tiny Charley, 66 Winners, Jackpot Pays 1500 Cigarettes, 500 Cigarettes, 100 Cigarettes. 25 cents per punch. Six numbers on each ticket."
The label on the back says, "Tiny Chas, Cigarette, Your Punch is Here. White, Yellow, Blue, Orange, Pink, Green. Op. Serial Size Color 3970 360 (scribbled initials), Made in U.S.A."
I'm unsure exactly how it works. I think it's made of cardboard or compressed paper, but it feels like a board. There are fourteen lines along each side which made me wonder if there are fourteen punchboards. I don't want to dig at it to see if it comes apart.
It was wrapped in a clear plastic bag for decades and had a sticker and black marker handwriting that left darker red on the faded punchboard front. The writing said, "11-15-98 $25.00."
Do you understand how this vintage Tiny Charley Cigarettes Jackpot Punchboard works?
Stringed Hollow Wooden DOOR CHIME Soft Musical Tones! - eBay (item 310047553796 end time May-10-08 17:08:33 PDT) Hang this hollow wooden stringed door chime on a door and it plays tones when the door moves. Three wooden hammers strike eight strings to make soft music when you open and close the door.
There is no maker's mark. It's very well made, varnished and attractive. Colored beads separate the hammers where they are hung at the top. This musical door chime hangs by by a keyhole opening on the back.
