Antique Carpet Bag - With Original Working Key!

*** SOLD ***

"Holy Mary Poppins, Batman!"

Well, here at 13909 Antiques, we have been calling it our "Mary Poppins Bag" to those who visit our store.

And it's a beauty!

Antique Carpet Bag - With Original Working Key!

It is in Excellent condition, colors still vibrant, inside intact and, not commonly found in such items, it still has the Original Key and the Lock is in working condition.



While I'm sure there will be Antique collectors who will show interest in this, however, I would like to see it go to someone who wants it, to make a statement, to strut down the street in style.




If you have a Flying Umbrella like Mary Poppins, use it to get up to 13909 Antiques pronto, and secure getting this tremendous item.

Vintage Marlene Dietrich Autographed Publicity Photo

"Wanna kiss me Ducky?"

That, of course, comes from two great scenes of the classic movie 'Witness For The Prosecution', starring the subject of our post.

13909 Antiques has a tremendous item;

 A Vintage Marlene Dietrich Autographed Publicity Photo


This comes from 1953-1954, when Ms. Dietrich first performed at the Hotel Sahara in Las Vegas.

The legendary actress and singer was offering some ardent fan (or admirer - she did have a torrid affair with John Wayne), as, along with her autograph, she wrote;
"Many thanks for your wonderful letter ... Please come backstage"

Who is she beckoning?

The elderly collector we acquired this from didn't know.

We've had it framed, and with high quality UV Glass (a noch below Museum-quality).

So, now you have the opportunity to own a piece of Old Hollywood, from the dying days of the glamorous period, and, of one legendary actress.

Here's the trailer for the aforementioned 'Witness For The Prosecution'

Hess Trucks ... While They Last!

Say it ain't so, Joe!

A news report today notes that Hess has sold it's retail gasoline business, being replaced by a company called "Speedway" by this June and July.
"So what happens to the Hess toy trucks that have been an institution for families for years?
Hess said last year the trucks will still be sold online ..."

Rather cryptic, not saying if they will continue issuing new editions.

Well, if you missed out, 13909 Antiques (contrary to our name), has a fistful of Hess Trucks, ranging from 4-20-years-old

They are;

1995 Hess Toy Truck and Helicopter 



2009 Hess Race Car and Racer




2010 Exclusive Hess Truck with Jet



2011 Hess Toy Truck and Race Car




This is, actually, our second batch of Hess Trucks, the first one selling out quickly last year.

So, put your foot on the gas and make it here to 13909 Antiques and scoop these babies up.
