The Frisco is a defunct U.S. railroad that operated in the Midwest and South Central U.S. from 1876 to 1980. These are an interesting story. This summer we took a vacation in Branson, MO and heard stories of a fellow who had gotten lots of stuff out of the old Frisco Railway depot when in closed around 1980. We never did find the fellow, but one of the local antique dealers had this stack of letterhead that he got from the fellow we never found. It was in an old string tied bundle that looked pretty beat up, but much to our amazement the sheets were like new when we got down below the first three or four. I'm not sure of the exact date as from what I've been able to look up there were many types of Frisco trains, but I'm guessing from the style of the one in the picture that they are probably from the 1950s. $0.35 #CA010 - Group of 4 Union Pacific Overland Route Toothpicks in Wrappers You get 4 for $1 (that's 25¢ each). 3" wide toothpick packages says Union Pacific The Overland Route and has the old Union Pacific logo on it. Each wrapper contains two toothpicks. These came from a fellow who used to buy old stock out of the Union Pacific commissary in the 1970s, and so they are in excellent unused condition. We're estimating they are from the 1950s, but by the looks of the box, they could be even older. These are the only examples we've ever seen of these and the Overland Route was discontinued in 1971, so they should be a pretty good item for resale. $1.00 #CS022 - Griddle Mix Pancake Bag Unused 12" tall vintage pancake bags from the I. O. A. Foods Co. in Cedar Rapids, IA. Says "Griddle Mix for Buckwheat Compound Pancakes". This company went out of business a long time ago and these were left in the warehouse. Circa 1950. $1.00 #CS120 - Full Box of Satina Ironing Aid Product Vintage 3 1/4" wide full package of Satina Ironing aid. Directions on back explain how to mix it. Inside are four bars of Satina and a sheet advertising LaFrance Bluing and how get two pairs of nylons for $1. Circa 1950. Nice condition. They are unused stock that was found in dry storage in the old Janney-Marshall building in Fredericksburg, VA. Old store stock doesn't come around all that often at this price. $1.00 #TM064 - Golden Guernsey Front Cover Striker Match Pack Vintage unused full pack of front cover stiker matches that say "Compliments Michigan Guernsey Breeders Assn Ed Wright Representative" on the cover and have a super colorful Golden Guernsey symbol on the back. These are in great condition and are from around the 1950s. Golden Guernsey is very popular with the dairy collectors. $1.00 #TY178 - Hard Plastic Piggy Bank Vintage hard plastic 4 1/2" long hard piggy bank. These are blue on one side and pink on the other. Old stock from a store on the east coast. They outlawed this type of plastic a long time ago. It can still be sold as a collectible, but you are not allowed to manufacture it any more. It's that brittle hard stuff that was a child hazard. There is no plug. Guess you had to break it when it was full. A lot of people remember these. They are in great condition. $1.00 #PL101 - Adlai and Estes Presidential Election Pinback Vintage 3/4" diameter pinback button promoting Adlai Stevenson for president and Estes Kefauver for vice president. These were made for the 1956 campaign and are marked Green Duck Co., Chicago. They have some small wear marks from being shuffled around over the years, but are unused and in great shape. These are hard to come by. $1.50 #SIGN006 - Cardboard Store Sign for Big Bag of Onions Vintage 14" wide cardboard sign with an onion lady with a snap purse pointing to the words "Buy the Big Bag for Economy". They were meant to be used in the onion section of the store and the price would be written in the space to the right of the onion lady. They came from the basement of a large store in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania called Trimble's. They apparently got signs with their deliveries quite often and threw them in piles in the basement. One of our long time customers rescued these (thank's Bob) and a number of others. They were never used, and are in excellent condition except for very minor aging. These are from the mid 1950s (some of the materials with them were dated). $2.50 #SOZ009 - Frostie Root Beer Sample Cup Very uncommon 2 1/4" tall vintage Frostie Root Beer sample cup.

These are unused stock from around the 1950s and very collectible because they are marked New York where Schaefer left in 1976. These are old factory stock in unused condition. $1.00 #PC006 - Pair of Johnson's Popcorn Boxes Vintage circa 1950 Johnson's popcorn boxes. You get both for $2.
