I visited the local ReStore shop in the Reston/Herndon area and found some interesting looking antiques plus some other items.

The photograph below shows a vintage Erector Set from the 1950’s.  “The World’s Greatest Toy” is an all electric automotive set.  It is housed in a nice blue metal case with a little rust on it.  There is a tag on the box that the contents will build the parachute jump.

Looks in good shape for a toy from the 1950’s.

Vintage Erector Set from the 1950’s Vintage Wedgewood – Pale Blue Jasperware

This photograph shows a collection of vintage Wedgewood – Pale Blue Jasperware.

Interestingly enough, Jasperware has been in continuous production since 1775.

Wow, that is a good run on a product but, then again, who doesn’t love Blue Jasperware?.

It’s always a treat to stop in the ReStore shop which is run by Habitat for Humanity, a non-profit organization.

UPDATE:  11-22-2019

This week I was in the Restore shop looking around.

I noticed that the vintage 1950’s Erector Set was still there but now it was marked down to $75.

Perhaps someone will buy it as a vintage holiday gift?
