think of right now, so on with the show... *****************************************************************************************************
This hard-to-find band hat was
made by Beistle in the early 1940s as an adjunct to their pirate
face diecut that began to be made in 1932. The interior honeycomb is
completely intact. The hat measures ~7.5" high by ~11.25" long and
is in very fine condition. PRICE: $49.99
This is a very hard-to-find 1940s
Beistle witch face transparency in near-mint condition. The green
insert is perfect and the candle holder has never been used. The
only blemishes I can find is a line ~1" long right above the left
side of the mouth as you look at the photo and two pinholes at the
very top, not at all noticeable unless upon close inspection. (I'm
not sure what the ~1" line is as it does not go through to the
back.) It stands ~8.5" high. PRICE: $159.99
This boxed set of Capri candles
has a copyright date of 1965 on the eye-catching box. The box

This piece of German scrap was
made between 1910 and 1920. It shows Krampus, their dark angel of
Christmas. This full-face version is disturbing! I especially like
its bloodshot eyes. This scrap measures ~5.25" high. It has a soft
crease noticeable in the scan. The scan does make it appear much
worse than it actually is. However, taking that into account...PRICE:
$24.99

was made by Gibson and released in the later 1920s. It is identical

and is in unused, mint condition. PRICE: $20.99
This Art Deco inspired tally
showing a cauldron with bats was made in the later 1920s and has no

This place card was made by
Beistle in 1920 and was originally part of a set of three different
designs sold in an envelope of six. As with many of their designs,
this one was well-thought out. This card was meant to be suspended
from the edge of a glass. When seen at all, most of the time the
hanging tabs in the middle are missing. Not so with this example.
This is mint and is actually a richer orange-red than shown in the
scan. PRICE: $34.99
