Here’s a couple of vintage children’s valentines I found online. Enjoy!

Love,
Tracy

I’ve known a few brave folks who’ve ridden scooters in the snow. (People from Germany typically – see photo below from SIP Scooters – they’re kooky!)

But . . . if you want to play it completely safe, you can take an imaginary ride around in your Department 56 Snow Village.

This little set of scooters measure approximately 3″ X 1″ X 1.75″ and are $20. The Walter Dorwin Teague-ish garage I show them in front off is a retired piece but probably can be had with some searching on eBay.

Thanks to Julie G. for this great find!

It isn’t too late to give Scooter Swag for Christmas! Get online now to send someone an e-card from Macy’s through their e-mail. You can make the card for any amount.

(Thanks to Santa Elf Laura B at Corazzo for this great find!)

Merry Christmas Scooter Swaggers!

This is a rather limited edition figurine and he’s particularly special because he’s 10″ tall. If you’re interested I would hurry because I couldn’t find many retail sources online for this scootering Santa. He’s on sale for $51.35. Merry Christmas!

PS: Santa really is as cute as he looks. I broke down and got one. His wheels are firmly on the ground (unlike in the photo) and he’s incredibly detailed. Looks to be a green VB1 or even earlier scooter – handlebar version!

Here’s some of Scooter Stu’s haul. Send photos to tips at scooterswag.com. Happy New Year!

These cute Valentines come in packages of 8 for $6.50.

They also have that scooter witch salt & pepper set Tracy posted a while ago.

UPDATE!!! The links have changed!!! (The new links are below)

I’m not really ready for Christmas yet – it was over 90 here in Portland yesterday – extremely hot for us – but I know there are some of you out there who work Christmas all year round.

We posted about this figurine last year:

but it’s available again for pre-order.

From David at Tabletop Christmas:
The interest in the Scooter Santa figure by Jennifer Garant was overwhelming last year. Our stock ran out after just a few days. We special ordered Scooter Santa for the 2008 season; he is scheduled to arrive on August 15.

Scooter Santa will appear on both:
