Vintage Mid 1960's Lundby Gothenberg

Oh I wish I could afford this. This wonderful Lundby house is listed on eBay currently with lots of photos.

Waiting for...

SANTA Claus...

Let's fly in and take a look.

Let's fly out now so the Elves don't see us.

Happy Halloween!

Lundby Lane Mini Mall

Welcome to the Lundby Lane Mini Mall with outdoor cafe.

We have three little shops to browse.

First is the Dolls House Shop. Mary is eyeing a nice little house for her dolls.

Second we have the Coffee and Pastry shop.

This store is being manned by Verna, Arlene and Bob Flagg.

Third we have the Floral shop being run by Cal Flagg who is a master grower.

Doll houses, coffee, pastry and flowers anyone?

What's for Dinner?

Martin is looking everywhere for his Hot Sauce to go with the pizza he just pulled out of the oven.

He calls upstairs to let Mary know that dinner is ready.

Mary is very busy eating her chocolate ice cream cone in her posh princess sitting room and exclaims that she is not hungry.

Martin maneuvers to the bottom of the stairs to tell Mary he made chocolate cake for dessert.

Mary quickly finishes her ice cream and joins Martin. She again tells Martin that she is not very hungry for pizza but will gladly try the chocolate cake.

Vintage Doll House Table with Lamp

I found this at an Estate Sale in a glass case full of dishes and pottery.

I plugged it into my Lundby 4 Volt house for a brief moment and the bulb actually lit up although dimly.

There are no markings on the bottom other than some numbers written in pencil. I just love this table lamp although it is too big for my Lundby Houses. It is definetely 1:12 or maybe 1:10 scale.


I just wanted to share these photos. The table is made of wood. The lamp shade is made of a thin plastic with a metal stand. The lamp also swivels a bit.

Camping Out

Nickie and Gustav has taken refuge at the local campground while the rest of the Peeps are preparing the homes on Lundby Lane. The boys are making cozy in a Bar-M-Ranch by Marx. They have a stove, sink and refrigerator provided inside along with a picnic table outside. They also have access to the primitive comfort station.

Off to the pool for the afternoon.

Time for Bed. Nickie assures Gustav that there are no bugs in the campground.

Gustav hears a loud buzzing sound. Gustav yells for Nickie to come shake out the tent and to come into the tent because he is sure he hears large bugs. Nickie tells him that there are no bugs but decides to sleep inside the tent anyway.

Both buys nestled together and sleep safely and soundly.

Camping Out Credits

The pool was made by Play School and is dated 1991. It is made from 100% plastic and

is water proof. I found this at a garage sale where they were selling the whole house with

all the accessories. The owner was kind enough to sell me only this one piece for $1.00.

It fits my little peeps so well.

The Bar-M-Ranch

This is a vintage Marx Bros. tin ranch. I suspect it is 1/2 scale or slightly larger.

We acquired this at a flea market and many of these vintage items have the chimney missing. Others that have all the plastic pieces with them can be very expensive to purchase.

Overall this Vintage Tin is in very good condition. The Bar-M-Ranch was made in the early 1950's as a Roy Rogers toy.

The tent and the two sleeping bags are by Lundby of Sweden. The tent shade does come down if you untie the yellow bows. I love Lundby and their innovation to provide creative play items.
