      The theme song always kind of reminded me of one of the sections of the "Band on the Run" song ("If I ever get out of here").

    Alex, you need to carry a small blacklight flashlight in your pocket when you go antique hunting. That way you can check the green depression glass because some of it glows and some does not and it is not always easy to tell just by looking at it. I recently bought a green depression glass lidded compote at a yard sale. When I got home I checked it and the bottom of it glowed like crazy but the lid, made out of the same color glass, did not glow at all. Thanks for sharing this fun tour of the antique mall. I am sorry you didn't find anything there to take home with you.

    Great. "ElektraWoman and DynaGirl". Not only is it familiar, but now I have that theme song stuck in my head. Sheesh. I probably haven't gone down THAT particular road in maybe 2 or 3 decades. LOL! (And no, I NEVER watched it.)

  • @Karmagirl29
    @Karmagirl29 Рік тому +1

    I loved Electra Woman & Dyna Girl! was bit before your time, in the 70s, because I was really young when it came out. Krofft had all kinds of weird shows in the 70s, Lidsville, HR Puffnstuff, Sigmund & the Sea Monsters and Land of the Lost (which is likely the most famous). At one point, the Krofft brothers even had a theme park in Atlanta in what would eventually become the CNN building.
    Love this big shop, I wish they had more Halloween antique masks and decor. But for sure the day of the dead sugar skull was cool as well as the large one near it. I liked that light up peacock, and then something I researched that isn't antique, the spouting whale wall clock which was by Allen Designs.

    Electrawoman and Dynagirl was a TV show I barely remember as I was born in 1971 but I do remember electrawoman was played by actress Deidre Hall who played on the soap opera Days of our lives. I use to see it on TV early in the morning.

    Lots of nice stuff, Alex. I had one exactly like that ceramic Christmas tree and it got accidentally broken earlier this year, not by me. I was heartbroken as it was made for me back in the 1980’s by an elderly lady who gave it to me as a gift. I know it’s only a materialistic thing. Oh well. I’m on the lookout for another one. Nice things there. Thank you.☺️👍

    My Uncle Frank was a designer for many years for a design company. . He designed many things...airplane seats, wine glasses, furniture, toys....and he and my aunt had that same white and red table and chairs in their house.... I remember going there for Christmas dinner/gift time for years and 1 year they had this set in one of their seating/eating areas and they had navy blue/white stripes on their wall...... I thought it was the coolest thing. They also had the table and chairs which were barrels for the chairs and a big barrel table in their pool room/bar...so cool....It was the 70's and I was about 15...
    Yes, I remember the Sid and Marty Krofft show and the Electra Woman and dynagirl lunchboxes. I was about 14, 15 at that time. I believe they made up Land of the Lost... I loved to make fun of it... hokey yes, but i loved it.. I even remember the show song.
