Vintage Duro Decals

 I recently found a box of vintage 1950s decals, all in their original packaging. Aren't they wonderful? Look at those bright red graphics on the logo- so awesome! 

 It has been like Christmas around here, unpacking the box, sorting/organizing multiples, scanning and listing them in my Etsy shop. 

 There's already a batch that has sold and is headed off to a customer in Japan...she was buying them as fast as I could list them :-)

 There are lots of nursery themed ones in the box and even odd ones, like the dutch ones in the photo above. I don't even know why the Dutch are so often seen in vintage kitschy images, but I do like them and they always make me smile...maybe it's the bright colors or those cute little wood clogs.

 I am completely in love with this decal company's logo! Each set of decals comes in its original package- a glassine (waxy type see through paper) bag, with sheared edges and their red logo printed on the back. So cool! We just don't see graphics this well designed nowadays...

 If  I had to play favorites, I would choose the nursery themed ones. They are all 100% adorable!
