Bathroom Collectibles

Bathroom collectibles brighten up any bathroom— and they’re not too hard to find. Almost any antique mall you go to has at least one good one.

The choice finds here are the Hazel Bishop Imported Handmade Eyelashes-100% Human Hair, Ready-to-Wear, c.1965, made in South Korea. Below that you'll see the very nicely decorated "Fringed Three Fingertip Towels" set by Sayco, c.1960, USA. In front is a stylish little emory board file that has no maker's mark, c.1960. In the middle at the top we see a Murine For Your Eyes, demonstration bottle, c.1940, USA. The Sexauer Balloon Tank Ball (that "improves the flush") c.1950, USA, may well belong with my Garage/Utility Collectibles but it's here in the bathroom.
