Unfortunately that's my keyboard dyslexia. I have to proofread all my posts or there would be countless errors in them. I fixed a bunch already, I guess that one slipped through.
I have another awesome score to share. I found a bunch of Avon at an antique store in Las Vegas on my last trip all marked $3. However I was only traveling with carry on, so I passed. I went back last week prepared. They were marked down to $2!!! So I got as many as I thought I could safely pack in my checked bag: 16 in all. I passed on many others (but those mainly all had Wild Country). Most of what I got has Spicy and Tai Winds. Got back to the airport and found that 1 bottle had leaked slightly (I forgot to double check the caps when I packed), but none were broken. Score 1 for TSA and baggage handlers.

These are my favorite. The old school Spicy items are the bomb.

And check out the Paid Stamp, I've seen picturtes of it, but didn't realize it actually had a functional rubber stamp on it. Too Cool!

Has anyone actually worn some of the vintage Avon fragrances?
I'll see what I can do.Nice, if you got a chance, could you post a few close up pictures of the lantern please?
Island lime is great. It just doesn't last very long on the skin. Kind of uncharacteristic of Avon scents.for a full bottle of Island Lime
To be honest, I haven't read all 12 pages of this thread. Has anyone actually worn some of the vintage Avon fragrances? I just picked up the old Avon Leather in a First Edition (book-like) bottle, and I like it. Some of the current stuff (Driven Black, the recently discontinued Tomorrow, Herve Leger) is pretty darn good, I think.

Pay no attention to the $5 Old Spice refill puck, which doesn't really belong here.
I didn't hit the monthly Flowery Branch antique show today, but I'm heading there tomorrow so I might find a few others.
The Super Shaver came in Sure Winner bracing lotion or Spicy after shave. The Spicy is a Shulton Old Spice clone and is awesome.
Found these two at a local thrift store for $1.00 a piece. Both are full of spicy goodness.
