I found a few interesting postcards this week and these ones made the grade.
First is a volcanic eruption that came with a small packet of real lava rock for a tactile experience.
Next is an astronaut showing kids the wonders of Kaiser Aluminum in Tomorrowland.
From Anaheim is The Cosmic Age Lodge, on the back is boasts "all the convience of The Space Age". When they perfect time travel I'm so there if only for the swag lamps.

Got three of these great Eames Shell chairs by Herman Miller for free. Only showing two in the photo, because I took the photo before we were given the third one..
One has the original label dated December 1967

My husband found the first two in a storage closet at work and the boss said go ahead and take them. A few days later he told him he found another one and asked if he wanted that one also..

I collect those 1970s lucite/glass ball grape looking swag lamps. Today I found this pineapple which I have never seen for $2.00 (it needs to be washed!):

Awesome piece Tiki David. Those can be worth quite a bit.

I have 2 of the wall sculptures. 1 of birds and another of discs. You can find them on EBay all the time because the person selling it always spells the name wrong - that's how I found mine anyways!
Hope you got a good deal on it!
