This 16″ vinyl Shirley Temple Dress-Up Doll is in exceptional condition. The outfit to the right is “Little Princess” and includes a white fur cape that adds so much to this gorgeous white gown with Gold Trim. On the left is from “Wee Willie Winkie” and sports a kilt, jacket, and beret! We don’t often post an item with prices, but we’ve had 16 outfits for the Shirley Temple Dress-Up Doll but no adult.
$175 for 16″ Shirley Temple Dress-Up Doll and 6 outfits.
All items are in original boxes, many with original certificates. Many of the outfits have never been out of their wrapping (other than when we took photos)!
Same doll with two more outfits: Heidi (on the left) and Bright Eyes (on the right).
“Heidi” needs little explanation since most of us know the story. It’s a cute dress with a big straw hat and red ribbon. On the right is an outfit from the movie, “Bright Eyes.” A great faux leather jackets and more.
And the final 2 outfits in these photos:
Again, the same doll (yes, we only have 1) with the outfit on the left from “Stow Away;” on the right from “Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm.”
Again, it’s one doll with 6 additional outfits. I might note that we have 16 outfits. You can choose the 6 that come with the doll for $175. If you want the balance of the outfits (10 in all), talk to George!

From the Dept. of Labor (U.S) we have the following information about this day’s meaning:
Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country. Dept of Labor website
We Salute and Honor The American Worker today!
The vital force of labor added materially to the highest standard of living and the greatest production the world has ever known and has brought us closer to the realization of our traditional ideals of economic and political democracy. It is appropriate, therefore, that the nation pays tribute on Labor Day to the creator of so much of the nation’s strength, freedom, and leadership — the American worker. Dept of Labor website
We wish you and your families a Safe and Wonderful Labor Day Celebration!

… It’s name might suggest a French origin. But, French Fries are believed to have originated in Belgium in the 17th century. Fried potatoes were substituted in the Belgium diet in winter months, when fish were not available to fry. From Europe, their popularity spread literally around the world.
French fries were introduced to the U.S. by President Thomas Jefferson. In the U.S., french fries are the most popular fast food item.
… Did You Know? Americans consume 30 pounds of potatoes per person per year. 25% of those potatoes are made into french fries.
… well, we have a few blushingly appropriate items … stop in and see them.
National Nude Day is a serious and special day. There are a sizable number of nudist groups around the world. They are not perverts. Rather, Nudists believe that the body is a beautiful thing, and meant to be displayed. Nudist colonies, nude beaches, and other venues exist to cater to the preferences of individuals who seek to walk around “au natural”. Even the conservative city of Buffalo, NY gets in on the act, holding an annual nude bike ride, encouraging participants to wear as little as they want. from Holiday Insights
and Finally, Be a Dork Day
Today (July 15) is Be a Dork Day. If you are a dork, stand up, be counted, and be proud. If you are not currently a dork, it’s your chance to be one, if only for a day. We are not sure why you would choose to be a dork today or any day. But, if you are so inclined, go for it and certainly enjoy this day along with all it has to offer.
Not sure you want to be a dork? The adjectives used to describe a dork include: awkward, clumsy, goofy, odd, out of touch, ridiculous, silly, and social misfit. I’m sure we missed a few attributes, but you get the picture.
What a Dork is not: A dork is not a nerd or a geek. Nerds and geeks have a higher IQ, and while quirky, they are held to a higher level of esteem.
So have fun this weekend. Forget worrying about Friday the 13th. Celebrate it with some French Fries. Then at least smile about July 14 National Nude Day. And hug a Dork on Sunday, July 15!
Remember that tomorrow evening, July 14, from 9-11pm is our Paranormal Investigation. Call ASAP to reserve your space. And stop in soon, we’re celebrating “Christmas in July” with a 20% off EVERYTHING. We’ll be watchin’ for ya!
We honor that tradition each year with parades, fireworks, and a variety of community events. We are not perfect, but we are ever changing and growing. Lest we forget what this all stands for, enjoy this video of Johnny Cash reminding us of this “Ragged Old Flag.”
National Country Music Day
We might remind you that this is also National Country Music Day according to holidayinsights.com and to let you know that we have plenty of record albums – yep, including Country Music!

Yes, it’s a long weekend and there’s sun in the forecast. But it’s also a Holiday set aside for us to remember those of our military who have made the ultimate sacrifice.

Above is a sample from our Candlewick Glass collectibles. These candle holders will add sparkle and warmth to your holiday. They were very popular beginning in the late 30s and on…
Under the leadership of Newton—with the help of designer Carl W. Gustkey—Imperial rebounded. In 1936, responding to the increasing popularity of elegant glass, Imperial released what would become its most successful line: Candlewick. The name was inspired by a Colonial-style needlework technique called candlewicking, and the design featured colorless pieces with small decorative glass beads around the top of each piece. By the 1950s, Imperial was producing more than 200 items in the Candlewick line, which was competing with Fostoria’s American line and Cambridge’s Rosepoint. from CollectorsWeekly

The above photo includes a Lucky Strike cigarette tin, Prince Albert and Sir Walter Raleigh Tins, cigarette rolling papers, a cigarette roller from the 1950s-60s, and a Bugler Cigarette Case.
This photo includes a Jitney Smoker board used in bars – 5 cents for a punch – back when cigarettes were actually 5 cents a pack! The word “Jitney’ has some interesting, if vague, history. Here’s an interesting quote:
The story begins near the end of the nineteenth century. Jitney (or gitney) was then a slang term for five cents (or perhaps for a nickel coin, it’s hard to tell). from www.worldwidewords.org
The smoking tobacco pouch was for advertising, you could add your company. The beautiful gold plated cigarette case was made in England. It’s quite stunning. The ashtray also has a lighter, made from slag glass from the 1930s.

The scale model of a 1909 Ford Model T Touring car is by Scale Models and made of real metal – never opened – from 1993. Here’s a great video of an unrestored Model T that was still running in 2015!
It is generally regarded as the first affordable automobile, the car that opened travel to the common middle-class American; some of this was because of Ford’s efficient fabrication, including assembly line production instead of individual hand crafting. ___from the description in the video below
