I love to see what Susan’s scan show- there are vintage charms I’ve never seen and ones I thought were both earlier and later than 1953 – and of course they probably are. The more documentation I see the more I realize that these were made for a long period of time- and molds shared by different companies, the provenance is more confusing than depression glass. Even vintage charms across the ‘pond’ from Great Britain to the USA and Canada shared common traits, like the Fums-up / Sambo / Kewpie hybrids. Sometimes I just can’t cope. I always love them though, so what can we do?
