Vintage Items

3 x dominoes circa 1920’s-40’s. Likely heavily compressed cardboard, papier-mâché, or composite woods stained or painted darkly to create affordable pocket travel sets. Toy makers faced shortages during this period caused by the wars.

Cute porcelain dog likely 1930’s- 50’s. Either German or Japanese but stamped FOREIGN because of common tariff import laws and anti-German feelings following on from WWI and WWII.

Dressing makers tape measure – mid century.

About Pips & Whiskers Vintage Whimsies

Born out of a desire for a new hobby, Anna’s vintage whimsies are a collection of curiosities for fellow kindred spirits who delight in the whimsical and tiniest detail. And if you love animals, even better. Her decades in the card and gift industry have clearly left an indelible mark, most noticeably in her compulsion to add a caption and reason to gift!

Why the dominoes?

Anna began collecting old dominoes pieces some thirty years ago. An item she always associates with her beloved Grandad and memories of childhood. Vintage dominoes made their first appearance in her textile degree artwork. Then as interior decoration throughout her home and more recently as props in her product photography. These beautiful little rectangles provide a spark to her fascination and respect for the long lasting impact on her grandparents lives of the 2nd world war.
