I just had a memory of reading vintage Little Golden books, so I’m looking up lots of those. Thanks for the links though Sharyn, those are some amazing looking vintage books! 😀
This is the closest thing I could find when googling:
thanks for the update!
just checked out the listings and the only thing i noticed was your photos weren’t high enough resolution to have them zoom in. and i would like to see closeups of the box front and back to see the ingredients list. much like some amazon listings have–
holy sh*t, you are amazing. thank you so much, that would have taken me way too long!!
Technically USPS only handles the last mile on Smart Post. Fedex is supposed to pick it up first. BUT if your post office clerk took it, you should be fine. Sometimes scans on Smart Post are slow, and USPS is slammed right now, I’m seeing delays all over the US with all services. So keep us updated when this gets scanned. I have one Smart Post box that got scanned in my town, then again in San Fransicso, but it’s supposed to go to Kansas, so…..
yep, i’ve been seeing this too for ebay and Broad Porch packages. i think USPS is slammed, plus the postal holiday in the middle of the week last week didn’t help. my carrier (it was probably a sub) didn’t pick up any of my packages yesterday! it’s like extra holiday package delays already.
this saved me a call to ebay! but hoping they do hear from people, because it’s obviously an issue.
we got the same message today. got a payout sent yesterday without issue. guess ebay is having some glitch!
from another site http://www.krakow-info.com/komnaty.htm:
Audience Hall of the Wawel Royal Castle in KrakowÂ
194 men and women of all walks of life, from the commonalty to royalty, looked down on the Polish King whenever he was receiving envoys or holding debates of state or conducting trials in the Throne Room of the Wawel Royal Castle. They are even said to have been rebuking him at times. Which seems unthinkable since their wooden heads thrust through the ceiling to merely form interior decoration with no counterpart anywhere in the world.Â
Nowadays just 30 of the original 460-year-old sculptured heads can be still seen in the Audience Hall (Sala Poselska), often called the Hall Under Heads (Sala Pod Glowami). No doubt, the masterly and realistic Wawel Heads depict people who lived in the early l6th century when the Renaissance Royal Castle was built in Krakow for King Sigismund I the Old. Unfortunately, we know neither why nor who was immortalized this strange way. Some think the Wawel Heads bear features of the courtiers of King Sigismund and his Italian wife Bona Sforza. Other theory maintains they illustrate some literary work (perhaps an ode for the royal wedding) much like Hans Durer’s frieze of 1532 in the same hall interprets the ancient Greek story of the Life of Man by Kebes.
from the Etsy listing:
It’s a replica from the coffered ceiling in the Envoy room in Wawel Castle, Krakow, Poland.
Cool!! Thank you!!
