Sold Vintage Crown Trifari Pin Couple In Car

THIS IS PROBABLY MY FAVORITE PIECE THAT I'VE EVER HAD. IT'S AN OLD FORD (?) (IT DOES HAVE A GRILLE) BUT I'VE ALWAYS CALLED IT A BUGGY, WITH THE COUPLE IN IT. THE CLEAR RHINESTONES ARE IMMACULATE, THEIR RUBY HEADS, HER FEATHERED HAT, THE CABACHON CAPS ON THE WHEELS, THE COACH LAMPS, A LITTLE STEERING WHEEL, AND EVEN THE MINI PAVES ARE MINT...BUT IT'S GONE ONE MILE TOO MANY, AND THE WHEELS NEED REPAIR!

IT'S ON RUBY LANE FOR $295 STATING IT MAY BE AN ALFRED PHILLIPPE DESIGN.

ONE WHEEL FELL OFF AROUND THREE YEARS AGO AND SNAPS ON, AND THE OTHER CAME OFF LAST YEAR. THE BEST BET WOULD BE TO HAVE THEM SOLDERED ON PERMANTLEY, AS THEY DID ROTATE, AS YOU CAN TELL WHEN THE ONE THAT SNAPS ON DOES, BUT I HIGHLY DOUBT THAT IT'S REPARABLE TO THAT POINT TODAY, WITHOUT A NEW AXLE!

IT'S VERY 3 DIMENSIONAL AND IS OVER 1 1/2: WITH WHEELS AND 1 1/8" WIDE AND ALMOST 3/4" IN DEPTH. FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME FOR MANY MORE PICS.

EXCELLENT CONDITION OTHERWISE, AS IS ALL OF MY TRIFARI, HAVING BEEN THE ONLY OWNER SINCE THE 1950'S WHEN I RECIEVED A HUGE COLLECTION FROM MY AUNT WHO WORKED THERE IN THE 40'S AND 50'S. ALMOST EVERY PIECE HAS NEVER BEEN WORN.

ALL "JOOLS" ARE WELL PACKED IN PRETTY POUCHES

TAKE A LOOK AT MY OTHER PIECES THAT I'LL BE LISTING THIS WEEK, AS I'M FINALLY SELLING OFF ANOTHER LOT.
