This is my favorite vintage item, purchased last year! It’s from 1963, 62 years old but is still in new condition and has no missing parts! I have the original box that it came in plus an owners manual with warrantee registration card still present! These are extremely rare! If any become are available for sale, they are usually missing parts. Often there is a crack in the plastic, sometimes more. The straps are often missing, but if they are present, they are usually in poor shape. And the cushions, if present, are typically torn. I just cannot believe people used to use these seats for their babies! So unsafe!
Here it is! Mint condition!
The manual with registration card still present!
That sure is some 'eye candy' right there! I know how it is, having something that's so desirable within the reborn community and it's all 'yours'!!! You did good!!! I remember playing with one when we were kids, though is a pretty vague memory. I also remember the Dunn's up the road, had a new baby sitting in one along the kitchen counter during one of our brief visits. Though I can't remember why we were there, since Mother bitch and his Mother weren't exactly close or friendly. I went to school with their son Dave. It must have been a younger sibling or perhaps she was babysitting for a friend that day. She had an olive green colored kitchen and the seat was a mustard yellow I believe. Memories. I am so glad you got yourself one! : )
