#BEADS0730 - Strand of 27 Very Large Cherry Brand 14mm Clear Baroque (Dimpled) Glass Beads

Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image. You get 26 Beads for $6 (about 22¢ each). Vintage temporary strand of fancy Cherry Brand Japanese Baroque beads. They are very large heavy 14mm diameter clear glass beads. The glass is transparent and very beautiful with dimples (they called it Baroque on the master case). As you can see in the picture, these were made by hand using old techniques. The crude shapes and unusual dimple really enhance the look. These are 1940s Cherry Brand (company only existed from 1946 - 1951). As you may know, Cherry Brand was considered the highest quality Japanese bead maker. This is a very fresh find we made from a dealer in New York who originally purchased them in the 1940s. These are very hard to find, very nice, and have never seen the light of day.

#CE021 - Baby Blue Eyes Insignis Blue Nemophila Lone Star 10¢ Seed Pack - As Low As 25¢ each

Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image. Vintage 4 1/2" tall unfilled (empty) Baby Blue Eyes Insignis Blue 10¢ seed packet from the Lone Star Seed Co. in San Antonio, Texas. These are the only seed packets that are like this, but every one of them had been sealed previously and opened from the bottom, so there are glue marks where they were sealed. That is why the price is lower on these. The beautiful images on the envelopes were printed in the 1940s. The price stamps and descriptions were printed in the 1950s. Excellent condition.

#CH326-04 - Rare 1951 "Fury of the Congo" Johnny Weissmuller as Jungle Jim Movie Broadside/Poster

Vintage 13" tall paper movie poster/broadside from the 1951 Johnny Weissmuller movie, "Fury of the Congo". Johnny Weissmuller was very famous as an olympian and then in his movie role as Tarzan. In this movie he played "Jungle Jim". It was part of a series of Jungle Jim movies he did that were very popular. It says that the "Amazon Beauties Lead Johnny Into HIs Strangest Battles". It's a rare poster. Please click the picture to see a more detailed image. Back in the day, when a new movie was going to play at the local theatre, there would be a guy who would run around town tacking these things on bulletin boards, telephone poles, fence posts, or anyplace else where they might be seen. Because most were outdoors, few have survived. Some will have small edge tears or roughness, but this is true of all paper movie broadsides, and they can easily be trimmed for framing. Although, a few small imperfections kind of adds to the look with these. Colors vary. We got them from the estate of famous dealer and friend Bob Secrist. He found them in the storage area of an old theatre up in Northeast Ohio.
