Retro Fun...

Retro finds are always fun...for me they are quite nostalgic
 and often remind me of childhood.


I spent many hours reading riddle books that I checked out from the library...
isn't this a cute book?



Vintage decks of playing cards are always on my list...


especially with cute cards like these inside...


I love the look of this vintage cutting board...




An instant collection of cribbage boards,


101 Scrabble letters from 1953,


 and this oh-so-cute little chalkware chick rack...




Until next time...have a wonderful weekend!

  2. Such great things you find, Linda! Love the joke book. I seem to remember reading books like that from the library, too. I've always loved playing cards with pictures on them. I bought a set that reminded me of one my grandmother had when I was young. I think the cards are still sealed in their plastic; I think I just bought it for the memory although I do love the images on the cards.

  6. riddle books always remind me of my grandpa, he was the king of riddles, jokes and weird sayings.
    And flashcards who doesn't have that flashback of studying them over and over again.
    I will always be in love with flash cards.
    Great finds as always Linda
    Take care.

  16. My favorites are the cribbage boards - played a lot as a child with my father - and the flash cards. And, I had a riddle book I would read over and over again.

  18. It's always fun to see things that were common while I was growing up sold in antique stores now! You found some great items. I see some things (like the scrabble letters) haven't changed a bit.
