Pair of Vintage Travel Trunks with Decals


Sweet pair of vintage trunks covered in travel decals (second one is hiding in background). I nabbed these at a local thrift store. One has more decals on it than the other but both are very similar. Look to be from around the 1940's or so. Better close-up pics to come soon.
UPDATE: Trunks are SOLD!!!

SwissAir Travel Bag


Found this neat old SwissAir travel bag the other day. Made from blue vinyl and has plenty of room for small things, could be used as a carry on bag. Looks to be from the 60's or 70's.

Vintage Eames Style Lounger




Score of the day!! I got a great deal on this Eames style lounger chair at a yard sale today (only $15!!!!!). The wood is nice but the leather is torn and dry. It has a made in Sweden sticker on the base but I can't find any other maker marks or stickers. Could be a Selig? I plan on reupholstering it so I may find other hints under the pads. Add this one to the "to do" list.
