Birdhouse Books Loves Vintage Books and Pretty Paper

Hi vintage friends!

I would love to invite you to visit my eBay store, Birdhouse Books.  You can also find me at my blog,   View from the Birdhouse.

My name is Trish.  I grew up in a family that went antiquing on weekends for fun.  Road trips always involved a stop at a little antique store in an out of the way location.   From childhood, I was fascinated with vintage paper - especially vintage Valentines and Christmas cards.  

My special favorite, though, is vintage children's books.  I love them!  I have a small collection of vintage picture books featuring dachshund dogs, and some favorite Little Golden Books.  I especially like Little Golden Books with dog stories, Christmas themes, and Eloise Wilkin illustrations.

You'll find all of these things - and a little more - in my shop on eBay.  I've sold since 2003 at eBay and have recently opened a shop at Etsy as well:  Birdhouse Books on Etsy.

Here are a few photos of things you will find at Birdhouse Books:

Vintage Children's Books like this one.  Pictured, Riddles Riddles from A to Z by Trina Schart:

Fun and unique vintage cookbooks, like 75 Glamorous Rice Dishes.  (Yes, rice can be glamorous!):

I love Roadside Americana and always have a selection of vintage postcards featuring motels, restaurants, amusement parks, and old fashioned tourist attractions.


Vintage Valentines!  Don't they remind you of childhood Valentine exchanges at school?


And of course there are vintage Christmas cards that evoke nostalgic holidays from the past:

I've enjoyed chatting with you here and sharing a peek inside my shop.  Hope you have a great day with some fun retro finds!

Do You Have Any Diapers?

This week I have been listing some vintage baby items in mymomsbooksattic




As you know when we list we check out what similar items sold for on ebay. My wasn’t I pleasantly surprised when I saw vintage boxes of Pampers from the 1970-1980 era worth money. New in sealed boxes. Now who would still have those hanging around the attic?

Vintage Pampers Toddler Diapers Unopened 12 pack 43 BidsSold $227.50

Vintage Huggies Ultratrim diapers for him step 4 Buy It Now Sold $59.99

Not in My Moms Book Attic!

I just never thought to keep a few boxes to sell in 20 plus years. Who would want these, they were pre sticky tab era, remember we had to struggle getting Diaper Pins thru the disposable diapers. Of course it was our finger that got pricked not our precious babe.

We are always pleasantly surprised where research will take us and what we learn in the journey. So keep your eyes peeled while you are out Garage Sailing….
