I also found this little tin - modern (and only 70p), but I thought that its colours went really well with my nautical theme and has some lovely little pictures on it.
Love, Liz
I'm joining in at Flea Market Finds and looking forward to seeing your great bargains this week.

What a charming book. I love old books like this, especially children's annuals from the 50's - 70's x
Absolutely lovely finds Liz! Enjoy your sunday.
Such a delightful little book, great find!
What a lovely and charming book!! Such great finds!! Have a great day! xo Heather
Nautical but nice Liz! That's a really interesting find. It reminds me of a book we once had, from my husband's boyhood; 'The Dumpy Book of Shops and the Sea".
I bet it's full of interesting facts and figures. The colours are exactly the same as the ones on the tea cosy and tin - lovely pic.
Love from Mum

I love the front cover of the book - it reminds me of seeing the QE2 when I was a child.
That book is full of lovely colors. Navy and yellow...I could go on and on. Love your tea cozy. Smiles...Renee
Beautiful book Liz, and I love your stylin in the top photo x
i am loving this ship theme! the book is completely lovely but my favourite is the tin for 70p! nice. xx
Oh my Hubby would love that book being such a ship lover. Great finds! Xx
Dearest Liz,
Oh, wonderful finding again♪♪♪
And it sure is a lovely match with your nautical theme♡♡♡ My husband loves the ships and wondered sounds intriguing. He made a big plastic model famous ship when young. he said it fell and broken p;)
Thank you for your lovely comment and and good to know your experience.
Love you always from Japan, xoxo Miyako*
Lovely, its always a great feeling when you find something you love. Enjoy it, dee x
ahoy there Liz!
Funny isn't it how once you spot one thing, a theme starts up in your mind...and suddenly you've got a collection!
Have a good week

I meant SHIPS and the Sea of course, my mind must have been on retail therapy :)
I love nautical themes too! Neat old book. One of my great pleasures is knocking around in thrift shops for treasure. You too, obviously. Hope you're having a fine spring!
What a great book. I just love looking at the wonderful illustrations in vintage books.
Very cute little book, Liz. The picture of the ship is magnificent.
What a great collection of nauticalness. I love how so many children's books of the era were titled with Wonder...& the colours were always so lovely. Much love Catherine x
What a wonderful book that must have been to the young owner when new!
Love the little ship tin with its look of an old oil painting.Great finds as usual!
