Kenmore Sewing Machine from 1946 for $3!
Inside was a small box filled with sewing notions. The box is from Rosebud Perfume Co. in Maryland and the postmark is date Dec. 9, 1925. That's when it only cost 3 cents to send a package ;)
**Update Rosebud Perfume Co. is still in business! You can view some of their new products at www.rosebudperfume.com
Also included is a "Happy Home - Rust Proof Needle Book" It's missing a few needles but I think it's absolutely adorable.
Finally, my newest victims! These guys were found in the bottom of a huge bin of stuffed animals. They of course will be washed then cut into something fuzzy :) They range in size from about 3 ft up to 4.5 ft tall. All in all the trip was a complete success!

Great finds. I need to make it to the thrift store soon.
Wow, that sewing machine is great! Your next victims look blissfully unaware of what is ahead of them!
They never saw it coming ;)
btw I e-mailed the Rosebud Perfume Co. and received a really nice letter from the Vice President. She was thrilled at what I found and grateful for the photo.
