There's nothing that I love then a good cowboy and Tom Mix was one of the first. A true pioneer staring in 336 film and only 9 of them were silent. Pick up one of the silent ones off of ebay -- bids are only around 10 bucks. Looks like Cowboy Mix might have taught John Wayne a few things or two.

Ebay Shopping: Vintage Fly Wind Up Toy
Ewwwwwww! Even though I hate bugs I just love this wind up toy from the 1920s/30s. Bids start at $175.00 so don't swat this one down.

Things We Love: Kay Bojesen Wooden Animules
Kay Bojesen started making many little toeheads happy with his wooden toys in the '20s. Rich little blondes and brunettes can bask in similar pleasure today. This 60 cm monkey goes for $1,950 at babygeared.

Family Photos: Aunt Virginia Drives the Ostrich
Oh, the good ole days when children wore simple, beautiful clothes and knew how to get themselves around town in style. We hope to help Brooklyn's tiniest residents dress much like our great aunt Virginia "Ginny" Hovey (shown here in the early '20s in Pasadena, California)!
