Christmas in July-Celluloid Deer Herd-1930/40s

     Hello vintage lovers!! It is day #7 the last day of our Christmas in July journey I have really enjoyed this and glad I got myself together to get it done (even though I missed the 29th..... I still put it up but I tried!!)! These cuties are another recent purchase for me, I also got these on my birthday trip but at an antique mall so I paid a little more for them but I love them. I do not own any of these guys I have a couple smaller hard plastic ones but none of these then celluloid guys. In my research I have found that these guys are from the 30s or 40s and the just amazes me that they made it this long they are so fragile. They have their issues (peep the one with no antlers) but they still display nicely! 

Paid: $35 (that's only $5 per deer)

Sells Online: $75 for set (think I got a deal???)
