Booty Bargains...

Sunday was the first booty of the season and I was up early, wrapped up warm and had a purse full of change! It didn't take long for me to find the first bargain, something I've been after for ages and difinately the buy of the day!

A large 1953 Queens Coronation fabric Union Jack - £1 and on the same stall I got a Coronation pop-up book too!



I couldn't resist this little fella for 30p, think he's supposed to hold matches or something? I'm thinking of converting him into a pin cushion.


This brass deer head plaque was only £1 and he looks cute with my vintage rings hanging on his antlers!


Then onto the second booty of the day and yet more Royal bargains! Coronation Scrapbook £1 and a 1952 Illustrated magazine marking the death of the King - 50p

Yet more vintage books (I couldn't resist the illustrations!) 50p each

And finally a 1950's Ludo game - £1


Roll on next booty day ;-)
