Items For Sale


 
Greetings from my new page! I've decided to begin offering vintage-only Halloween items directly on my web site. Naturally, you can have every confidence that I'll stand behind the fact that each item I offer for sale is vintage. As you know, finding quality items is getting harder and harder so I can't say with any assuredness just how many items I'll have for sale at any given time. I'd encourage you to check back often.

If you would like to consign items for me to sell for you, contact me for details through this web site.

If you see something on this page you'd like, simply contact me through this site to check availability. Once I confirm the item is available you can either send a check to my mailing address or send a Paypal transfer. My mailing address is:

Mark B. Ledenbach
P. O. Box 2421
Orangevale, CA 95662

The price for each item includes shipping, but insurance would be extra and is wholly optional. That's about all the fine print I can think of right now, so on with the show...

This is a black cat transparency diecut made by Beistle in the later 1940s. It measures 8.5" high by 6" wide and is non-embossed. Except for a pinhole in the left eye, clearly visible in this photo, and a slight bend to the right ear, the item is near mint.  PRICE: $65.00

This hard plastic Halloween cowboy was made by Tico/Rosbro in the 1950s and is hard-to-find. He stands ~3.25" high. It is without flaw. PRICE: $70.00

This place card was made by Hallmark in the early 1930s. It is a complex piece typically found with flaws. This example is dead mint. The card measures ~5" long by ~3.5" high. PRICE: $30.00

This witch face place card was probably made by Hallmark in the early 1930s. Except for the tiniest bit of wear at the extreme end of the hat, this piece is without flaw. The card measures ~4.25" long by ~4.25" high. PRICE: $30.00

This witch place card is extremely difficult to find. It was made by Beistle as part of their 1918 boxed party set shown on page 194 of my book. It was one of the four designs included in that set. The card measures ~4" long by ~2.5" high. PRICE: $24.00

This is one of my favorite place cards. I like the simplicity of the design. It was made by an unknown manufacturer on cardstock in the early 1920s. It measures ~5" long by ~2.5" high. PRICE: $38.00
