Well this is my first Thursday participating in
Please visit her blog for a complete list of participating blogs. I've been peeking for a couple of weeks now and finally decided it was about time I participate! :) Lots of great goodies to look at!
Here is my Vintage Thingie! A beautiful Vintage Suitcase by American Tourister!
I found this just a few weeks ago and knew I had to have it! This inside is PERFECT!
Is it weird that I'm kind of planning on using this for my next weekend getaway?! :)
The fabric is very pretty too! I love everything about it :)
But the best party has to be the key! Yes! It still had the key- and it looks like this :)
Plus it had a "St. Ann Pray for us" little sterling charm keychain that needs to be shined up. I will admit it was worth every dollar, all FIVE of them :) What a steal!
Happy Vintage Thingie Thursday!

Welcome to VTT, Stephanie! LOVE LOVE LOVE that suitcase and interior, but the KEY has me over the moon!!! Thanks for sharing!
How beautiful, oh, my, does that bring back menories...lol...I have a blue one like it, but mine is square. I do beleive I remember a friend using one like this when she used to spend the night with me back in the late 50s. The key is a treasure by it's..
Welcome to VTT, come on in and make yourself at home.
What a great suitcase - and the key is absolutely FABULOUS!!! Have a great VTT!
I can't believe the inside of that little suitcase is in such great shape! I'd love to visit your shop - you've got some great pieces of furniture in it. First time to visit your blog - it's great! Thanks for dropping by my blog. PAM
Welcome Stephanie. What a find this was for $5. This little suitcase from the 50's is in very good shape and that it still has it's key is amazing.
Hope to see you next week.
I love it! I would use it, too.
Welcome Stephanie. Well you certainly found an American Tourister in great condition. Mine wasn't round but my Barbie doll had a black round one. They just don't have the character in today's luggage like they did back when. And old photo would find it a cozy place to stay.
A steal indeed, reminds me I still have a couple of pieces from my 21st. b'day!Not sure about the keys though..........
Welcome to VTT! I am so glad you have decided to join us...I know you must have lots of vintage goodies, as I so enjoy looking at your blog post.
What a great suitcase...but that key...so cute!!
Stephanie, what a find at a fab price! The key is too cute. You MUST use it! It's perfect! According to her blog, Apron Memories, EllynAnne Geisel uses a rectangular overnighter as her carry on.
Welcome to VTT!
what a great find! for 5 bucks it is worth buying.. so pretty.. have a great day!
That's a great suitcase! :)
(I'm a mod podge freak so I'd probably mod podge a vintage pictures on the front - maybe a lady. lol.)
That is a great buy! I always loved small accessory travel cases like this when I was a teenager and young adult.

Oh,it's beautiful!! I love it and how sweet is that key?
I'm so excited for you that you get to take that on your trip!
I'm squealing with delight!
Love it! And, no, it is not weird that you are planning to use it. I would love to find a couple of pieces in good enough shape to travel with on weekend jaunts! ~Kelly
