  12. Thanks Phil...yeah, it made the mind work, unlike shows from today. Valentino, Barnabas was perfect for that show, his eyes and face were darkly. Quentin wasn't dark enough for my taste, but he sti...

  44. I have seen the USA mark many times, sometimes associated with McCoy, Shawnee, and others. The USA mark can be very generic, but a USA mark with numbers or artist signatures/initials gives you a real ...
  45. These old kitchen gadgets are pretty neat. The best part about antique gadgets is you can still use them, and they will still outlast any modern gadget you can buy today.
  46. Love advertising, and the mortan salt girl is a highly iconic piece. I hadn't realized that porcelain was actually fired glass. I always thought it was just quality heat treated paints. Good info
  47. Yeah...Dracula, Wolfman, The Mummy, Elvira, and the Hebie-Geebies Thank you Aimathena
  48. I agree somewhat with buyer beware, Scott, and that these are period and original reprints, compared to modern reprints, which as you point out are entirely useless except as a way to cover holes in w...
  49. Thank you Tom...I played it on 45RPM, played good, but one area on alma mater has a deeper groove and it sits there till adjusted
  50. Tom, I love Cherry too, but they aren't normally vine twisted here since they are more protected. I found out that Blunderbuss's first thought was even more accurate toward this piece, since it's neit...
