Vintage Fans

Remember the good ole days of fans when there were nights when no one slept and the only breeze was outside on the porch / balcony so you grabbed a pillow and slept there till the hot humidity air woke you up sweating your head off. Yes these were the days you wished you had a fan, long b4 there was A/C. 

If you are old enough to know that, you'll appreciate their beauty.

Here are a few of my classics:

This is my favorite and I am not sure I wanted to part with it but I finally did. It went to Winnipeg to a girl that was visiting with her family when she stumbled on it on the marketplace.

Then along comes the person who wants it more than me.

Pictures of Montreal in the 60's

Decarie Boulevard 1961. The  Gibeau Orange Julep , also known as the Big Orange, was built by Hermas Gibeau in 1942. That building looked like  this  in the 1950s. The structure was rebuilt in the mid-1960s when the road was widened. This larger, fiberglass orange is 40 feet in diameter. The Orange Julep drink is similar to that produced by Orange Julius. Both companies developed their foamy orange drinks in the 1920s.

The Randon things I collect on Tresorcache101

My blog name is called Tresorcache101. I liked the name Tresor cache from the first time I heard it. It sounded like a diamond in the rough. I like to find little treasures even at the curb. I picked that name when I started this blog way back when. Since Tresor cache was already taken in Google, I added the 101 at the end.  It is the place where I document stories about the items given to me by my Family and Friends either to keep or resale. Some of the items I are found at the curb or  at 2nd Hand Stores, Flea Markets.  Most of the photographs are mine with the exception of the occasional picture ideas for reference of what could be done with the item to upcycle.  Google " bpagani@poshmark.ca" and click on images you will be directed to my Poshmark closet where I sell. I post items on Instagram under randomthingsicollect. Please ask any question you have regarding any of my items.  Use my referral code "bpagani" to receive a $15 discount off your first purchas...
