Default Vintage Giggles aka What are they smoking????

We're always finding good stuff on Craig's list or ebay to joke and giggle about...let's post some of them here!

Like this one:

This one amuses:

Can't imagine why this one hasn't been snatched up!

I kind of like this Brother machine ...it sort of looks like my Atlas machine (bought it from Billy) that was manufactured by the Brother co.

Just saw this one in my area for the 2nd time. I think the old fence panels add to the ambiance.

1951 was a good year.

a white treadle like one of Charlee's listings was at the auction today, I didn't stick around to see what it went for (have 2 already) but I am sure it was under 25 knowing the crowd

I like that old Brother too - but not for that price...and I would rather have a funky old Morse
