The mobile home fan in your life is a very special person so they deserve very special vintage mobile home gifts. They appreciate the historical significance of mobile homes, trailers, and campers as well as the design aesthetics and the great memories shared in days-gone-by.
Y’all know I’m a huge vintage mobile home fan and I’ve managed to create a nice little collection of mobile home and trailer memorabilia over the last 5 years. These are just a few of my favorite items easily available online. I think anyone that is interested in vintage mobile homes, campers, or trailers would appreciate any one of these on Christmas morning:
Vintage Trailer Supply has a few different CD’s to chose from. You can see them all here.
This is probably my favorite book of all time. It’s full-color with hundreds of beautiful photos of trailers, mobile homes, and campers during their Golden Age. It’s thick and heavy and well-worth the price.
It’s my humble opinion that every vintage mobile home fan should own this!
You can buy it in two places. Vintage Trailer Supply has it for $22.99 and Amazon has it for $19.89. Shipping will be the deciding factor on overall cost though (typically orders over $35 gets free shipping at Amazon but if you’re buying additional things from Vintage Trailer Supply it may be cheaper to order from them).
Buy Trailerama
I’ve written about this book before because it is such a great resource for mobile home owners. The price is reasonable for the vast amount of in-depth information and large images that are in this book. This would be an especially great Holiday gift for anyone in the process of remodeling their mobile home!
Your Mobile Home: Energy and Repair Guide for Manufactured Housing, 5th Edition
This is a great gift for those vintage Airstream fans! It’s a smaller ornament, at only 3.5″ x 1.5″, but it would be a great addition to a vintage camper or trailer fan’s Christmas tree.
It’s currently $16.88 at Amazon. You can buy it here:
Classic Aluminum Camper Trailer Fair Trade Ornament
Every vintage trailer fan I’ve ever known loves this movie! There’s just something about Lucille Ball and New Moon trailers!
At only $5.00 it’s a great stocking stuffer!
Ebay is a great place to find real vintage photographs of vintage mobile homes and trailers. If you know your fan lived in a particular make or model you could search for a photo and frame it. It would be unique and affordable. Most of the photos on Ebay are under $10.00.
You can also find printed issues (the actual issues) of vintage mobile home magazines on Ebay but they tend to get expensive. Go to Ebay.com and search for vintage mobile home photos.
This is a great looking ornament that could be hung year-round. It’s less than $25.00 and would be a unique addition to the vintage Airstream fan in you life.
Classic Aluminum Camper Trailer Fair Trade Ornament
These are the coolest coasters you’ll ever see! They are 4.5″ coasterstone coasters with great scenery of vintage campers. These are useful vintage mobile home gifts for just about anyone.
I own two of these but I can’t bare to actually put them outside for the birds. They look great on my shelf though!
Amazon has a few different styles that are under $20.00 each. I’d probably go with the non-wood ones for the waterproofing.
When the vintage mobile home and camper trend took off a couple of years it did us fans a favor. There’s tons of great vintage mobile home gifts available now!
