New repro

Post by **PutzinVT** » Mon Mar 05, 2018 10:10 pm

Finally out of my building slump.
I got a house with an vintage ornament last summer.

I really wanted the ornament but the house was cool too.
It has coco on the roof and sand on the walls.

I had some left over pete's coco that I used for an other repro.

It's not a perfect repro but it seem to have turned out well.

The original has a hole on the base that looks like a figure would of gone there.
I'm hoping maybe one of the vintage house collectors may be able to tell me
what figure it was.

Hi Lucy,

Great job!!!

I also did a repro on this house. The figure is a little girl mostly all white, not holding a doll. I made my figure, I'll get a picture of mine for you.

Hey Steve - nice job! The base looks a bit like the finish of the Flat Iron Clock you posted a few months ago - nice!

I also like the balcony - is it just chipboard formed in a half-circle?

Thx

John

Yes John, a circle punch in chipboard then the corro glued to the edge.

steve...

a spot-on reproduction to be sure...it looks "dime store fresh"...

any luck on finding the figurine for the front yard?...i'm pretty sure pete has the little girl with the toy one available...

my very best regards...howard...
