my great grandmother had these hanging in her kitchen ever since my mom was a little girl. now they're hanging in my bedroom. it would be nice to find new states to add to the collection.
i really would love to keep adding to my collection. i'll have to keep checking ebay... if anyone has any other resources like becky's, please let me know!
I love these too. I think the fact they are black makes them very special. My husband and have collected two. One from Disneyland of California and one from Hawaii.
I had Illinois,which I gave to a friend because she also had Michigan. I also found Ohio, which I gave to my sister currently living in OH. I'm pretty sure I found both IL and OH at thrift stores in Chicago.
Love these! Doesn't choosing all the same style make it more impactful? In high school I had an assortment, but it looks way more pulled together when they are all the same style.
frecklewonder often gets vintage state goodies like this. Personally I like to collect the glasses with state birds and flowers and such.
