I'm a little late with today's "Halloween Revisited", but here it is with a few hours to spare. This one is from October 4th, 2019.
********************
I found this print at an estate sale a couple weeks ago for $1. I've seen the image before, but never knew much about it. The title is "All is Vanity" and it's by Charles Allan Gilbert.
I came upon this framed print of Ichabod Crane at an estate sale this past summer. The person whose estate sale it was had a house filled throughout with shelves of books.
We had a Ouija board when I was a kid. For some reason it layed on the ground in our furnace room. And it freaked me out. My sister had told stories of how it had predicted who she would marry, providing the initials of the person she did in fact end up marrying. I was pretty afraid of anything potentially ghost related. Yeah, I was a chicken.
I've gotten over that fear and had no problem buying this Ouija board. In fact, I picked up 4 of them this season. There was an odd run where I kept finding Ouija boards.
Even when I was afraid of them, I always loved the art on these. This version dates from the 1960's.
I find myself apologizing once again for the state of this blog. Here we are in the throws of summer and nary a post about my garage sale adventures. Rest assured, I've been at it weekend in and weekend out and treasures(?) have been found. I just haven't taken time to write about any. So let me start off this summer with this freebie I found a few weeks ago.
