More from Comptoir General de la Bimbeloterie, 1949-1950


Be sure to click on the images to see more detail. I love the little cupboards with pots, pans and even a pepper mill. As a child I would have coveted the doll house furniture, even if my dollhouse was a cardboard box. I have fond memories of the board games shown here: Parcheesi, Monopoly and Chinese Checkers. The vintage cars and trucks are small treasures. Today if you were lucky enough to find one it would have nicks, scratches and rust, perhaps missing a wheel -- all the more precious for having been loved by a child long ago. Tomorrow I'll post the dolls.
