Gail and I saw an estate sale ad in the paper for a "50 year accumulation...tools...books...1000's of Avon products...." They weren't kidding. All in the original boxes. First we found a cologne bottle in the shape of a gun. Really. It was one of a SERIES. Who knew? In the 1970's, apparently Avon had a marketing plan for frustrated, suburban men who really wanted to go out and shoot something. Next up, we found aftershave for a moose and the bottle with a polar bear nestled on top of a (melting) glacier. Now I am on the hunt (pun intended) for the most delicious moose stew recipe I can find...thank goodness it's estate sale day tomorrow!
