HO Scale Train Model Village
I bought a village! Ha, I came across a large lot of scale models used for making mini villages, usually people build these to go with their train sets. I got them off of a retired man who built them all when he was younger in the 50's and 60's. I like these because they remind me of the move Beetlejuice "nice bleeping model! honk honk" :). Pretty cool pieces a lumber yard, houses, post office, fire station, etc.. I'll be selling all these in true action fashion with low starting prices! Auction to go on over this coming week - see the link to my ebay page on the side.

Native American Indian Bisque Doll
New favorite find - All bisque Native American doll. She was made in Japan (not that I'm psychic, she still has the sticker on her foot :)). What I like about her is her expression. I kind of surprised "i didn't do it look', must be the side glancing eyes that give it that effect. Her look makes me think she's from somewhere between the 1940's - 1960's, but I'm not sure. Found her at an estate sale. Her clothes are made from a vinyl like material so they feel very fragile and have little seed beads strung here and there. A neat find!
