Right now they're being safely stored in... the Victorian music cabinet I have. So at least they're flat and out of light.<br /><br />With the Lounge Lizards, you tend not to expect a cover tune, no matter how quirky; I didn't realize it was Berlin either.<br /><br />Ann Martin- I love the soft mood lighting they did on figures back then. It made everybody look just beautiful.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10883854503294092142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064894231149440617.post-28241173523777366392009-12-06T08:26:05.216-08:002009-12-06T08:26:05.216-08:00oh wow, wow wow!

Then maybe you'd be able to use the copies to have more options for how you'd like to display them -- less worry about light damage to the originals.<br /><br />Anyway -- great find! I learned "C-U-B-A" from an Austin Lounge Lizards album, and never realized it was by Berlin. That certainly explain why it's so singable and catchy!<br /><br />"Where all those dark eyed Stellas/Light their fellas Panatelas...."Rethorykehttp://rethoryke.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064894231149440617.post-79818372826529262802009-12-06T04:03:00.361-08:002009-12-06T04:03:00.361-08:00Cindy- Thank you!

You can search by zipcode, I believe. I also hit flea markets, antique malls and things like that, to supplement the thrifting. Basically I just search online on terms like "antique malls western pennsylvania" and see what comes up. Then I make a pilgrimage. :)<br /><br />Janelle- They're pretty delicate-- so there are little tears here and there, but the color is terrific certainly. And they're not dirty or moldy or anything. It was a lucky score for sure! :)Jenn Thorsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12899242535971792424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064894231149440617.post-76072241928519584812009-12-03T12:21:16.036-08:002009-12-03T12:21:16.036-08:00THAT is one heck of a find!

A room of them would be amazing, though space doesn't permit. :)<br /><br />Andrea- Yes, Rachel tends to rely small amounts of really high-quality pieces instead of knicknacks... But then again, she also changes her mind when it suits her. So I wouldn't worry about it. Her books are quite the eye candy, though!Jenn Thorsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12899242535971792424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064894231149440617.post-2096479634057083302009-12-02T20:31:43.220-08:002009-12-02T20:31:43.220-08:00I love that vase!

I've been going through my Rachel Ashwell books today for inspiration and she's a less is more person, and I needed to hear you say, "I'm a more is more person". That made me feel better for some reason....a psychologist could tell us why. Affirmation, I suppose. I'm okay, you're okay, Rachel's okay. The sheet music is a real find. Love the one with the roses on the front. That's a piece of art!!Andreanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064894231149440617.post-47162209502999729122009-12-02T15:30:39.084-08:002009-12-02T15:30:39.084-08:00Wouldn't you just love to frame those old piec...Wouldn't you just love to frame those old pieces of sheet music and decorate a whole room around them?Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12339761246576419905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064894231149440617.post-80986673737237351862009-12-02T09:57:43.887-08:002009-12-02T09:57:43.887-08:00Dustbunny- Oh, I hear you!

I also want to keep them safe-- they're fairly fragile-- so framing a few and hanging them out of the light would be a nice way of doing that.Jenn Thorsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12899242535971792424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064894231149440617.post-9807035602558597542009-12-02T09:49:57.547-08:002009-12-02T09:49:57.547-08:00Girl,your going to need to find more wall space!Th...Girl,your going to need to find more wall space!Those are frame worthy!<br />Love the vase too.It seems like when objects reach a certain age, imperfections don't seem so important<br />anymore.Kind of like people in some ways I guess.Thanks for sharing and looking forward to xmas decor!dustbunny8https://www.blogger.com/profile/16661219671052355475noreply@blogger.com
