Eastman Kodak Cinegraph 16mm Film Lindbergh Captures New York 8503,Box,Can, 1927

by

LindberghExcellent historical 16 mm film, issued by Kodak Cinegraph around 1927, “Lindbergh Captures New York” after his flight, No. 8503. Has original box, original can, AND the leader showing the name of the film. 

The condition of the film appears excellent, but we haven’t tested it.

The box shows some wear, as shown in the photos, as does the can.

Faint fragrance of mothballs on the box, presumably from how it was stored.

We have other 16 mm films from the same collector listed separately. Please click the picture above to see all films in our collectibles eBay store.

Rimowa Integral Vintage Aluminum Travel Train Makeup Carry On Case Germany

by

RimowaPictured here is a Germany made Vintage Rimowa Integral Aluminum Travel / Makeup / Train / Carry On Case.  Has seen some use, but these cases were made to last.  Has some small dents and scratches but still very serviceable and has that classic Rimowa look.

The case has a mirror mounted on the inside of the lid.  The mirror has some damage and could easily be replaced if desired.  Hinges and latch all work well and the key does lock the case.  The case measures 15″ x 9″ x 8″.

Please examine the pictures closely for condition (and excuse my reflection in the mirror).  This is really a nice classic piece of lightweight vintage luggage available in our ebay store connectibles.

Vintage Airplane Figural Brooch Pin Plane Travel Map Air France Africa Aviation

by

Flight Pin

This listing features one of the more unusual and hard-to-find vintage pins we have ever discovered. 2 figural airplanes are suspended over a round glass dome covering a unique map that depicts African countries placed right next to Paris, France. Circa 1950’s – 1960’s. 

Please look at photo to see the details.

After much research, we have not been able to discover another similar one. Our best guess is that it was a promotional pin either for a travel agency or airlines; perhaps Air France when they started flying to African countries and this was a way to “connect” the 2 areas. 

  • Remarkable design.
  • Measures a substantial 3″, a true statement piece of jewelry.
  • Excellent condition, appears new and unused. 
  • Unique gift for your favorite traveler or travel agent or Airline personnel; unlikely to ever be seen again!

Please visit our ebay store – connectibles to see this pin, and many other unusual collectibles.

by

three dollsPictured is a charming lot including 3 original 1936 Madame Alexander Dionne Quintuplet 7″ composition baby dolls, each sitting in an original vintage Strombecker wood rocking chair.

Delightful for display!

Includes:

  • 3 dolls, all marked Dionne and Alex or Alexander on back of head and back.  VERY good condition with nice hand painted faces; two of them have the left arm slightly askew and not completely in the socket but nothing that seriously detracts.
  • Some crazing, some wear to paint on fingers; look at photos carefully for condition details. Doll in pink has a pencil mark on back that we did not try to clean; doll in yellow has the initial “M” on back, perhaps for “Marie”. 
  • Dresses are reproductions and in very good condition.
  • Two have newer bloomers.
  • THREE Strombecker 1940’s – 1950’s wooden rocking chairs are all stamped on base, measure 7″ high, and overall very good with general light wear.

Marx Disney Carry All Dollhouse Playset NEW in orig Box, Furniture, People RARE

by

 I know the term “rare” is over-used, but this set deserves it! Pictured here is a never used or played with Disney “Carry-All Doll House Take-a-long Toy” by Marx, 1950’s. Tin litho house has classic Disney graphics; plastic people, furniture and vehicle complete the set, Marx style 49-94029.

Once assembled, the house has a handle on top and can be carried around as shown on box.

Disney DollhouseThe tin dollhouse is still flat inside the box as it was packed originally; tabs are therefore perfect as is the metal with no scratches or marks.

  • There was “nibbling” wherever this was stored however, and the box has the damage as shown and the instruction sheet is missing sections and is very, very fragile.  Still good to have, but difficult to read parts. I think assembly is quite straight-forward however, as there are not that many Disney Dollhouse2parts to assemble.
  • Regardless of the condition of the box, the toy itself is outstanding!
  • Complete with furniture and figures and even a car for Mickey, Minnie, Daisy and Donald and friends.  The only item that time otherwise affected were the little foam mattresses for the beds; they had disintegrated which is common among toys from that era. The foil on the mirror is intact and on the dresser.  This, any many other vintage toys, can be found in our ebay store connectibles.
