Description

The listing, Vintage Paper Handheld "Foldaway" Fan & Original Box "Keep Cool and Be Gay" has ended.

Vintage "Foldaway" fan- handheld paper fan with plastic handle- and the original box. The original box says Foldaway Fan on two sides, and the other two sides say "Keep Cool and Be Gay".

There is a different design on each side of the paper fan- one side has purple flowers, the other has yellow flowers and butterflies. The plastic handle is a teal color, with ornate gold colored dragon like designs.

The paper fan is torn at one end as you can see in the photos... hoping someone out there might be able to fix it. The cardboard box shows a lot of wear and is brittle from age.

Thank you! I just love white or mostly white cats with blue eyes... I bet yours is beautiful! Mine has some peach colored patches on her sides, beside the little bit on her face. She was a stray that sort of adopted us when we moved here a few years ago... she has thrived since we took her in, and is now a spoiled housecat. :) Thanks again, and best of luck to you with the auction!

I collect all kinds of fans, hand fans, large wall fans and so many more. I have one that my son as a kid won at an arcade. He was going there and I would go back after a couple hours to get him so he did not have to walk home...it was only 3 blocks away and he was 12 then but he would always be empty handed and I asked him why and he would just say they don't have the thing I wanted to me and he saved until he had enough tokens and bought a little black folded fan for my birthday that summer! Oh how I miss those days. He was the one that started my collection! Such a good kid and great young man! Have a lovely and blessed weekend! Will be eyeing this one and fanning you LoL fanning you how funny!

What a great reason you started your collection! I think the best reasons to collect anything are that the items mean something to you or bring up great memories. :) Thanks, and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
