I have been trying to expand my vintage trophy collection for some time now. They are very hard to find, at a reasonable price. I have even bid (and lost) on a few on Ebay.
But just this past weekend, I came across 2! at different estate sales.
The first is a 1948 trophy is from a Persian Cat competition, called the Billie Bancroft Trophy.
And a tennis trophy from 1919.
This trophy started my collection, a while back. It's a 1922 Tennis trophy.
A few more things I found this past weekend... A trio of baby cups.
Two of them are aluminum - and this one has little scenes of Mary Had a Little Lamb and other nursery rhymes. So cute.

I've looked for trophies, but so far none to be found in my thrift stores. You've put together a nice group. ~ Sarah
