Motherload

This mornings venture to a retro fair in our local town, has me thinking I have achieved the mother load!
The fair was jam packed with retro/vintage enthusiasts seeking that special item! 

Collectors are a bred unto their own, many were flicking desperately through albums of cards, one older gentleman I spied had chanced upon a discreet album of early 1900's girly pictures!
There were loads of childrens toys and collectable teddies and vintage tea cups a plenty.
Me.... I scanned for anything ceramic or glass.

The Danish Pottery, Holmegaard vase and a Jesse Tait plate clock (not featured) I bought from one stall. 
If I had an endless budget, I would of come home with their Bitossi, iittala, Portmeirion, Genie lamps, West German Lava, Czech glassware and much more......

I'm feeling pretty smug!
