Vintage MIca Glitter Houses AKA Putz Houses

Ahhh Christmas, time to collect decorative caca that lives in boxes for a good 11 months of the year. This year I am gaga for Glitter houses which came out in the 1920's-1950's. They are little follies made from mica glitter, cardboard and cellophane which is covering for the windows, and a hole in the back for a Christmas light to make the windows glow. I now own one, and was telling my sister about it and we were looking at them on ebay while talking on the phone. That's when she saw the one with the cracked out looking Santa in front of a grouping of 2 glitter houses and it looked like he had just kicked the windows and doors in after a home invasion. For some reason we started laughing until we were coughing and my son came over and said,"It looks like he has a pipe cleaner crowbar". Then we almost wet our pants. So now we are looking for the low rent mica houses to make a ghetto adjacent to the pretty glitter village, and we found public housing, a cathouse(whorehouse) and are looking for a bar, pawn shop and free clinic. All that can be labeled in glitter and with red lights in the back separated by little train tracks from the fancy part of town.The pictures I have uploaded for your viewing pleasure are Crack Santa (his pupils are wayyyy too big and his tongue is hanging out, note the crowbar) and his just robbed houses (see the destruction of the broken windows!),the Cathouse (look for the chenille halloween cat out front, Ha Ha!)the public housing complex (where you don't want to be found at night),and a nice foofy blue one that is just there to show you what lives on the right side of the glittery tracks.
