I love vintage: pink citation train case

Posted by Jessie on 3.18.2010.


I recently found myself at an estate sale in the home of a woman who seemed so glamorous to me.  She was apparently a pilot,  very well traveled, and had collected art from so many of her travels.  When I happened upon her sewing room, I was unmoved by the piles of polyester, but found my way over to a sad little train case in the closet.  It was in very bad shape, but it was pink, and it was half off that day.  The deal was sealed when I noticed my very own initials on the front of the case.

    That was fortuitous! I think my mom has/had one of these but it was avocado green.

    I am not Vanessa's mom but I have an avocado green one too! Wish it was pink but in '70 green was all the fave. Glad I have kept it.
