 Some more dogs from St. Vincent de Paul!

The two on the right top are tiny, they are "doll house" dogs, Japanese.  The long terrier was also made in Japan, as is the poodle pair.  The blue and white's background is harder.  Unmarked, white clay body, with the blue decorations, was common in Dutch, Danish, and German miniatures in the 1950s through the 1970s.  They were all a dollar or two, less if they were bagged with a companion dog. 

For 50¢ a bag I got a lot of holy or prayer cards.  I keep the vintage for their artwork.  Here are a few of my favorites.



Saint Anne, 
Pray for us!
is an antique, dating back to 1890-1910.


I don't know anything about the Infant Jesus of Prague, but here he is on four different cards.







They put out a lot more ephemera, bit by bit, over a few weeks.  I managed to be there to pick up some of the nice stuff!   So stay tuned...
