From the original soundtrack of the 1977 George Lucas film, The Story of Star Wars c 1977 is both a super album of John Williams music from the film as well as the actors and actresses who made it such a success including Mark Hamil, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, and Alec Guinness. The record is in very good condition, but best of all is the original magazine insert included in the album which features photographs of the characters and dymanic, action scenes from the movie all in full color. Collectics prize this album as much for the insert as for the recorded sounds on the record, and it makes a great gift for any Star Wars or science fiction enthusiast in your life. Priced to sell from a Greenwich, CT estate collection of Star Wars memorabilia and cross listed on Records 2.  $16.00

Straight from an old Vermont country estate, this highly collectible Time Magazine advertising commemorative is the 1973 map "The World of Time" by Rand McNally and will look terrific in a frame. Beautiful to look at and educational too, the map charts the time zones of the world with great detail, showing the grid of global timekeeping that connects the countries of the world. The map is based on Mercator's Projection, "modified to show the market coverage of Time's major editions." Mercator's map, "upon which true bearings of courses can be measured directly, has been used by navigators since 1600." The map is in very good condition and large at approximately 41.5" wide x 28.0" high, published by Rand McNally and Time, "The Weekly Newsmagazine." Cross listed on Vintage Advertising 1.   $24.00

Very hard to find June 1968 copies of Time (6/14/68) and Newsweek (6/17/68) which cover the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy on the cover, in many black & white and color photographs, and in depth articles that recount the life of Bobby Kennedy and the details of his murder by Sirhan Sirhan. The articles go into detail on Robert Kennedy's service in the administration of his brother John F. Kennedy, championing of civil rights, and his political rise as he ran for teh presidency he was poised to win before his assassination on that fateful day of June 6, 1968. Defeated by Eugene McCarthy in Oregon, Kennedy desperately needed to win the California Presidential primary, and on June 5, 1968 he did. His victory speech at Los Angeles’ Ambassador Hotel ended with the phrase: “And now, on to Chicago…” Leaving the building through the hotel’s kitchen area, Bobby Kennedy was accosted by a Palestinian, Sirhan Sirhan, who was reputedly angry with Kennedy because of the Senator’s support of Israel. Firing at Kennedy, he felled the Senator with 3 shots including one to the head, and also hit other bystanders with gunfire. Senator Robert F. Kennedy died the next day, and his funeral was an emotional event that began at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York and culminated in Arlington Cemetery’s only evening burial. The Time and Newsweek articles recount this history, the gunman and his plotting, and the emotional aftermath of Kennedy's assassination. Also filled with great vintage advertising for cars, cigarettes, early computers (we've included a photo of an IBM ad which was an early use of an African American in a major company national ad), and more, these 2 vintage news magazines were part of a major estate consignment exclusive to Collectics from a major collector of Kennedy memorabilia $45.00/ set of 2 magazines

Old barber razor in the original box and nicely marked on the blade with the manufacturer's mark and also Fremont, USA. There is a faint marking of "Trade" on the box, possibly to signify use by professionals. The razor measures 9.5" long when opened and 6" long when closed. The handle is most likely made of bakelite and has a tiny break less than 0.25" long on the end where the razor hinges-- and only on one side. As such, it's not visible from the other side which also happens to be the side where the blade is marked (good for display). The box measures 6.0" long, is a little worn along the edges and is most likely missing a top piece for the box, but this is definitely the real thing. The blade is nicely marked with the manufacturer's mark and that it was produced in the USA. The blade could be cleaned as you desire, but we have chosen to leave it just as found.  It's very hard to find old barber instruments and shaving accessories today. $16.00

MB031 Period print of a charcoal drawing of President John F. Kennedy by Robert Riger, a classic depiction of Kennedy printed on heavy stock paper 9.5" x 7.5". President Kennedy has his hand outstretched, shirt sleeve showing, and note the fine detail in his hair, eyes, mouth, and fingers & fingernails. It's signed in the lower left corner Robert Riger, who was best known for his sketches of sports figures from the 1950s and 1960s. The print is in very good condition with only some minor yellowing and very light staining on the paper background, some of which will likely clean and is not noticeable. No tears or damage, and it comes to you direct from a Greenville, SC estate collection of mid-century printed art and memorabilia.   $36.00

These 4 17.0" x 13.25" prints are part of a collection of 44 paintings completed by H. A. Ogden more than 70 years ago and "long regarded as the masterpiece of American military art." Issued originally by authorization of the Secretary of War, these superb prints of Army uniforms illustrate every type of dress and field uniform worn from the Revolution to the end of the 19th century.

The plate number and description is printed below each image, and all are signed in the print H. A. Ogden. The set comes in the original folio and a full page description of each of the 4 plates in this set, and folio and plates are in very good condition with no tears or damage. H. A. Ogden is known as one of America's finest illustrators working at the turn of the century, and a specialist in the rendering of military dress and vivid groupings of servicemen in full military regalia. Perfect for framing, this outstanding set of 4 plates is indispensible for the collector of Americana, student of military history, and everyone interested in the fascinating evolution of uniforms worn by America's fighting men and women.

Of interest to both nautical and ship collectors and lovers of Art Deco, this is a marked Kensington aluminum tray with Deco clamshell styling and the logo of the cruise ship line on the lower front. We particularly like the lines on this piece, the clam shell shape coupled with the stylized lines and flourishes of the Art Deco etchings. It measures approximately 10.0 in diameter and is fully marked on the back with the Kensington mark in addition to the ship graphic on the top. This period aluminum plate is in very good condition with only minor scratching from use on the top in a few places- great to display on a stand or on a wall! Cross listed on Metalware 2.   $32.00

More old, early 20th century portrait prints from an upstate Vermont country home. These are the old high quality prints which have the look and feel of photographs, but of course photographic prints don't hold up this well. These prints are also done on heavy photograph paper and frankly are often mistaken for photographs. The set would look great hanging together on a wall. All measurements are approximate and prints are in good condition except for occasional edge wear which will disappear into a frame. Great vintage collectibles! 1. Scribe holding paper, hand resting on a book and elaborate feathered hat measuring 11.0" x 9.0".  2. Woman, breast exposed, breast feeding her baby 11.0" x 9.0" 3. Handsome young man in late colonial apparel 11.5" x 9.0". 4. Woman breast feeding plump baby, with man looking on measuring 11.5" x 8.75". 5. Pensive young man leaning on elbow 10.25" x 9.0" 6. Old man with white beard and receding forehead 11.0" x 8.25". It's very hard to find these old photographic quality prints of the age anymore...perfect for framing and a great price! Cross listed on Art 2.   $24.00
