The first year they sold them, which would have been 1994, all of the Target stores had these huge "It's a Wonderful Life" cardboard ornaments hanging from their ceilings. I had to have one! So I went to 4 different Targets the day after Christmas begging for them to let me have one. Well one store didn't think they had any use for them, so they gave me 2 of them. One has a picture of George & Mary and one has "It's a Wonderful Life" in huge letters across the whole thing. They must be about 3 1/2 feet across. They are truly a treasured possession.John Mauricenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4094626877865766804.post-87752762902185387252014-12-20T14:23:34.956-07:002014-12-20T14:23:34.956-07:00This is so cool.

I bought her as many of the houses as I could when they first came out in 93 or 94 (can't remember what the first year was) and every year after that. We have buildings from the Target collection and the Walgreens distributed on too. The year that Target did the big theme in their stores, we got several of the cardboard ornaments. Still hang them up at Christmas. The one item I never found or was able to get, was the Bijou Theater. We had the Trust and Savings but somehow one Christmas when we went to put the village away we still had the box but not the building. Both adolescent daughters pleaded no knowledge of what happened to it but as much as they liked to throw things in the house we knew what had happened. Anyway, I just found and bought both of them online. Like to get some of the rarer ones but I just tried bidding on Uncle Billy's House and gave up after it went over $180 bucks.Chris Dnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4094626877865766804.post-20993240268385575892014-10-06T23:06:18.841-06:002014-10-06T23:06:18.841-06:00Years before Target started carrying "It'...Years before Target started carrying "It's A Wonderful Life" anything I started collecting them from various boutiques near my home. I had all of the buildings, all the people, signs, trees, skating rink, etc. I moved from my larger home into a very small townhouse and have not been able to put them out for many many years. I pulled into my garage one day and felt several crunches under my tired to find they had fallen off the shelving unit and I ran over two garbage bags that housed them. I was sick. I had every single piece. I have been so sick about it that I can't even bare to check to see what all I lost. I know they stopped making these the year Target started selling them. The ones I have are much larger than the Target brand and much nicer. I spent in the way of $4000 - $5000 for all the items that I had. I can't find them any where and may just start buying Dept pieces and make my own village. Has anyone ever heard of these before or have any they would want to get rid of?Ginni Lnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4094626877865766804.post-66789685722441475182014-01-18T19:02:08.817-07:002014-01-18T19:02:08.817-07:00Oooh...I like that.
