Ask a question

We're assuming this odd little pin came from something like an agricultural fair, but we have no idea what it siginified. It could have been for a beauty queen, or an award for husbandry, or something like a blue ribbon. We have no context, although it probably was special, since it's not only gold filled, but very nicely made.

Liely 1950s or 60s, very good vintage condition. This is also the name of a piece of pin up art by Gil Elvgren, but as far as we can tell, there's no association (It's of a young woman who is picking up a basket of laundry and has gotten her very short skirt caught in a wringer). SJB4

Frequently Asked Questions

Wholesale availability

All of our items are vintage, we cannot get multiples. Occasionally we'll have more than one of a particular item, but once they are gone, we cannot replace them.

Custom and personalized orders

We will be taking custom orders for digital art going forward. Please contact us before placing orders.

Gift wrapping and packaging

Gift wrap is available on a case by case basis. We haven't decided to formally offer it, but if you need something special, ask us and we'll see what we can do.

Do you take returns?

We do not, as per our official policy, take returns or issue refunds.

If something is not right with your order however, and we make an exception to that policy, we CANNOT issue a return label. You are responsible for the postage. I would also add that we DO fix problems...

Do you take requests for specific items, pattern matching, etc.?

Not officially, but we pick a lot, and we will cheerfully look out for specific items. We don't deal in china or silver most of the time, but we pick all the time, and there's no reason not to look at every single corner of the thrift shop...
