    Very cool. I wonder why they'd make an advertising trick matchbox.

    Yourturn, wonderful images... love the rose one!

    Terry, did you figure out how it works? I'm wondering what happens if you put something in when it appears empty?

    Wowser, great score quirkygirl, hope there are more there for you:)
    I picked up this pedal car today - wish my kids were small, looks like a fun one. It is a Baghera Renault AK-1906 LE #15, not sure how many were made.

    What nice detail on that car ... doesn't look as if it's been ridden (or even touched) by any kiddies :)

    It is! No work done to it, was made in 2006 - here is some info on it.
    This is a model of French BAGHERA manufacturer, who in collaboration with Renault, has released limited edition and numbered in 2006 to mark the centenary of the victory over Renault Ferene Szisz 1st ACF Grand Prix .

    Some neat bits over the weekend. The sommerso vase was FILTHY. And the vase had a green felt thing stuck on the bottom, but I thought it worth buying. None of these cost more than a dollar.

    WOWW!!! Love the baro, silver box and 'oil' vase!

    I'm not sure if it's Loetz: my gut feel is rather newer. It's very like some Brierley Studio but it's not marked. The box has EPNS cutlery and a registered design mark for about 1929. The sommerso is really nice in proper light, it was dim as heck when I took the quick photo. The barometer actually works, which is unusual for that age!

    You did very well, OBB! Love the silver box and the floral pot best, but all very nice!
