Favorites from La Fonda Newsstand and Gift Shop

If you’re visiting Santa Fe soon, drop in La Fonda’s Newsstand & Gift Shop for a drink, a snack or a souvenir. We have the complete La Fonda Collection of posters, note cards, magnets and T-shirts, a terrific selection of books, magazines and newspapers and, of course, an assortment of practical, interesting and wacky gift items. For example:

Snazz up your boring mailbox with a Santa Fe "flag." Red chile is shown above, and other choices include Kokopelli or a lizard. Flags are post-office approved, easy to install.

When you're far away from Santa Fe, what you need is a shot of La Fonda! Shot glass has our building on one side, our logo on the other.

This one may sound silly but it works great! The Sweet Little Sugar Softener (shown at right) is practical as well as attractive. Just soak it in distilled water for 20 minutes, then place it in your container of brown sugar, cookies, marshmallows, etc. The food will remain soft for several weeks. Guaranteed for 2000 years!

Need help selling your house? The practice of praying to St. Joseph the Worker has aided many homeowners. Kit includes St. Joseph statue, prayer card and instructions. Manufacturer says many real estate agents keep St. Joseph statues on hand to help them in their business. (Unlike the sugar softener, this product is not guaranteed.)

Never buy another nail file! This glass nail file is perfect for natural or acrylic nails and is made of durable glass for long-lasting use. Washable. Includes protective sleeve. With red chiles or La Fonda logo. 5 1/2".

Just for fun: a wind-up horse and rider to race around your desk (floor, counter, etc.) on his bucking bronco. Ride 'em cowboy!

Card games for kids! Make rainy days or road trips more interesting with Outlaws, Lawmen or Indian Chief card games. Hands down, they beat solitaire or Old Maid! La Fonda's Newsstand & Gift Shop is open daily from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. If you live out of town and must have one (or more) of these items, call the Newsstand at 505-988-1404 or click here to e-mail your request.
