    Many of you seem to like the turtle planter from my previous post, so I decided to feature it today. Made around 1950-53 originally, this is still popular even today. If you look very closely, you can see small specks of the yellow cold paint left on this thing. Olive green examples are re-issues, and this has another color combination that is scarce. This piece is special because it's a family heirloom. It even has the original price on the bottom: (it's either 49 or 69, but that is in cents)
