Slightly OT: Suggestions on where to find vintage AF stuff?

(mod - please move if need be, thanks!)

Hello Everyone,

I've got kind of a strange request for help here. I have a friend who is very interested in purchasing the Henri wine rack from the SkyMall. Kind of strange, I know.

She's a francophile & spent several years in Paris as a child & essentially did a lot of growing up there. She loves almost everything that has to do with Paris & France. As a gift, I was hoping to get her something Air France associated - maybe an AF towel or flight attendant scarf on page 16 of this AF uniform document. Does anyone know where to get one or are there any FA's that read this board that may be able to hook me up (PM privately if you'd like). I think that this'd be a really good gift for her & she'd like it a lot.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

There is a selection of Air France items for sale online thru the Air France Museum. Only the French version is functional; click the "boutique" link.

You will also find some memorabilia on EBay. I have already seen scarves and a lot of accessories there (but never bought anything).

Yep. I normally find stuff like this on eBay. Keep on trying every other week. And try eBay's other regional sites too.
