We Went to an Auction...

On Sunday, my husband and I went to an auction - , in my mind, a great way to spend the day, if you can't be with your children.  We bid, we won, and we came home with three items..  I've been looking for a little table like this for a while , I guess you could call it a telephone table, I may refinish it as there's a couple of water marks on it - it's so cute - complete with the little chair.  The original sticker is on the chair - Eastern Furniture Limited - Victoriaville, Quebec.


We love old games - some to play, some for decoration.   The Parchesi game is from the 40's - Parchesi - A Royal Game of India - I used to play this game with my grandmother...




Astro Launch - a game from the 60's - what makes this so special is that it's a tin game - you sure don't see anything like that anymore.  Astro Launch - an exciting Space Race game - that's Control Centre in the middle - a dome just like Trouble, which came a few years later...  The box isn't in the greatest condition, but the game is excellent.


We paid $5 for each game, nobody else bid!
