Vintage Thingie Thursday

Thursday is becoming my favorite day of the week because of all of the wonderful vintage collectibles I get to view thanks to the ladies that join in on the Vintage Thingie Thursday fun! If you would like to see more, go visit Colorado Lady and check the list of participants at the end of her VTT post.





This delightful little bunny has been hopping around since the 1950's. He is a tin wind up toy.


This little fellow is the same age but isn't as agile as he used to be. He seems to have a tired wing and foot but still does his best to hop around.

Notice the logo of the manufacturer, MIKUNI, is a little unicorn!

Oh, what treasures these are, I had to smile the minute I saw them....Ho-ray baby chick for still hopping along...they don't make'um like they used to. The little plastic chicks and bunnies don't last long, do they?
I'm so glad that there are other Ladies who (are addicted)I mean...love to protect the older stuff.
You have a Great Easter.
