Everyone who is a fan of the film ‘A Christmas Story’ should have one of these. It’s the Old Man’s Major Award, or as Jean Shepard (writer and narrator) further described it as: The soft glow of electric sex gleaming from the window.
This one is smaller than the original and not as breakable. The shade is silk or faux silk with fringe (nice quality) and the rest is metal and sturdy plastic. The fish net stocking is a woven material and separate from the leg.
Measures 18 1/2” H x 10” in diameter (shade) x 5” diameter base.
The two loops of fringe that are detached can be fixed with fine thread and a narrow needle. See photos.
Notes: Clean, works well, two pieces of looped fringe are detached at one side, no holes or tears, not bent (no glue required to fix this one - don’t worry if someone used all the glue).
Consistent with age and use.

It’s getting close to Christmas, Hanukkah & the New Year, but there is still time to head out to the Connecticut countryside for auction pick up day. Grab a friend to keep you company and to tell all about the marvelous bargains you are coming to collect. They also might need to help you load them all into your vehicle as some might be too heavy to carry on your own. You might want to pack a thermos of hot cocoa to take with you & make sure you have your coat, hat, gloves & scarf. If some of your ‘soon to be new belongings’ are fragile, you might want to grab some paper, bubble wrap and boxes as I don’t part easily with my packing supplies. The trip itself should be scenic once you get off the highway. It is a bit ‘off the beaten path’ or ‘through the windy woods’ as some have said, but you will have ample parking, easy loading and not too far to walk once you arrive.
Other helpful hints:
When you come to the fork in the road, go left towards the haunted swamp. Our road has no sign. Turn left at the auction sign and giant mounds of grass covered dirt to your left. Otherwise, you will end up at the airport. Remember, you're picking up stuff you don’t need in a place you can’t find.
Always contact me if you need more information or clarification of any kind. I could have left out a detail by mistake. 203.645.4167
