New Postcard Added to "Homes of the Stars" Set

I had a great weekend of hunting on the Kitsap Penninsula, and one of the many items I found was another postcard to add to my "Homes of the Stars" collection -- a great one of Bob Hope and his home. I've added it to the Flickr set and also updated the main post -- while I was at it, I put in the slideshow. Enjoy!

Update: Vintage Menus

Lots of news about our vintage menus! I've also gained a bit more information about the trip and exactly when they were collected, and I've also updated the previous post to reflect this new information.  All the menus I will be posting were collected in the summer of 1955, roughly the end of June into early July. I'm also going to try something new -- rather than have such lengthy posts of images, I'm going to try out the slideshow option.  Let me know which post format you prefer. I've also gotten a few requests for these images which I'll be posting in the round-up post when the menus are all posted. Stay tuned for more!

Welcome to Dave's Vintage Stuff

Welcome to Dave's Vintage Stuff, a new website for retro, vintage, old, and plain old ancient stuff, from advertisements and illustrations to toys and collectibles. Since I was born in 1973, I'm going to define "vintage" as anything before 1985: the year I started middle school. I'll be posting weekly scans and photos of items from my eclectic collection of stuff -- maybe even some wacky music. The other key to this place is that it's all free for you to use; all the images are released under Creative Commons license for your use, as long as you don't collect them all and try to sell them. These are my gift to you; I don't have a great deal of money, but I'm passionate about this kind of stuff, so if you like what you see, or you find use in the stuff posted here, please make a donation to a not-quite-starving-but-still-broke artist.
