Bring on the Vintage Cameras!

Vintage Camera 2

I started out collecting and selling vintage because I was into the clothing and the shoes. Along the way I started to realized there was a LOT more out there in the vintage collecting world that interested me! I got into costume jewelry, toys and dolls, purses, kitchen items, and my current passion - Vintage Cameras!

I absolutely love thrifting and antiquing for Vintage Cameras. It's the best thrill to find a gem like that, for me. I love checking them out, seeing how they work and learning about the progression of photography. It's fun to research them, and there are many sources out there, and on the internet, to read about vintage cameras. I even have a fun time photographing them!

I was working on a pretty awesome stock of these vintage gadgets for the shop, and loving how they looked displayed in the house. Then I had a fantastic holiday season in the shop (yay!), and sold the majority of the collection! This just means I have been on the hunt for more cameras! I have also been building up quite a new stash. Above, and the follow photos are the newest six vintage cameras in the shop -

Vintage Camera 5
Vintage Camera 4
New Vintage Camera 1

This is only the start. I have many more coming in the days and weeks to come! (Including a couple Brownies and a few older Polaroid Land Cameras) I really want to fill up this section of The S.S. Vintage!

What is your favorite thing to hunt/thrift/antique for? What's the most exciting thing you've thrifted?

Rainy Weather and Sneak Peak

I have been so excited to share with you guys, my finds from the Salt City Antique Show! The weather, however, has had a different plan in mind! It's been raining on and off for days, and I haven't had much of a chance to get outside to get my finds photographed.

I did finally get out yesterday, and get some pictures for Etsy, so here is a little sneak peak of what's coming to the S.S. Vintage soon!



I've never seen a Baby Brownie before, How cute is that?

This is only part of what I found! Check the shop for these amazing vintage cameras, Very soon! I also have more vintage cameras, some fabulous vintage jewelry, a pair of Ferragamo Heels, and a couple more special finds to share. I've been having some great luck while treasure hunting lately!

Come on weather, Cooperate!

Say Cheese!

I really love old cameras. The older and more unique, the more wonderful they are! Most of the vintage cameras I thrift actually end up on display somewhere in our apartment before they end up in my Etsy shop. I don't know if it's the idea of all the images an old camera has captured over it's lifetime that makes them seem so charming, or the thought of being able to take one moment in time and transfer it to film so you can have it with you always, but I know I try to purchase every single vintage camera I find!

I always have a camera with me. It's much more important to me than my cellphone, and it might really be one of my favorite things! I can do everything with it from document important occasions, and events I want to remember, to taking pictures of things that seem ridiculous or silly so I can share it with my bother who lives too far away!
