Welcome! I'm Mary aka Maryesterday, a gal who has lived as a vintage "time traveler" for over 20 years. The past? I'm there! In order to fuel my passion for all things vintage, forgotten, antique, mysterious, and mid-century modern, I've turned this into my full time business -- I support myself by sharing great finds and lost treasures I unearth in my real-life retro adventures. I'm here on eBay to share them with you.
I try to set the BIN price fairly for a fast sale. If you are truly interested in this item but have reservations about the price, please do not hesitate to make what you feel is a fair offer. All proceeds of this listing go to help an independent outsider artist working in the field of literature and creative writing.
Visit my store for collectibles, lost ephemera, cool clothing, and interesting retro reads. I have a lot of books, because there's no better way to time travel than in the pages of a good old book. Try it once, and you'll be hooked for life! I hope you enjoy the time you spend with me here -- and have a nice yesterday!
