Collectors of airline memorabilia may enjoy these magnets harkening back to the glory days of flying, and the first incarnation of Pan Am.
The magnets come in a set of five, and sell for $8. For people who came of age during the era of Pam Am, the logo bring fond memories of a time when traveling was glamorous and had a certain mystique. (My how things have changed!)
There’s lots of other Pam Am logo stuff, so check them out.

For lovers of airline memorabilia — I found an antique shop in Grapevine, TX (just 10 minutes north of DFW airport) that has a pretty good selection of airline keepsakes. From toothpicks to carry-on bags, china and more. Found a Braniff bag and a few smaller items all for under $10. They had items from a number of airlines. It’s called The Corner Store and it’s right on Grapevine’s historic Main Street.
Oooooooh. I’ll have to check this place out next time I have a Dallas layover. Sounds like it could be a lot of fun.
Thanks for the tip, Tish.
