I posted this in the Marketplace, but thought this might actually be better.
I have a BUNCH of vintage cardboard tri-fold fans that belonged to my great grandpa. They're salesman's samples, circa 1930-40ish, I think. Can't find a date on any of them, though. They're in great condition. I have a few religious themed fans and some pastoral scenes (mountains, flowers, country road). I don't need this many, girls, so I'd like to share with somebody who maybe has some handmade soap or...??

There are photos on my website, linked below:

Oh my, I am so impressed with the beauty of all those old feed sacks and all the wonderful things you have created with them. What a treat! I'll be checking in on your etsy sire and your blog for that hit of dazzling old country treasures....I just looked at your fans, they are spectacular, but I'm off to the mechanic's tomorrow so i best avert my eyes from all these goodies...

I just went to your etsy for the first time...(mostly because this is the first time I've seen it posted in your signature.) Lovely things! I have to talk hubby into giving me an allowance for such pretties! The little strawberry tote bag is adorable!! You do just wonderful work!! (Just had to pop in and say soo!
hugs Jess
P.S. hope you find homes for your fans..I have little ones or I'd try to come up wiht a trade. I'd hate for them to get ruined here.:)

Sorry, Lorri, that one sold FAST. If I had one for every person who wanted one, I would be in tall cotton. ;0) I'm on the lookout for another one, so bookmark me and check back.Thanks for the inquiry.
