    Great finds! Especially love both dragons, the gold filled necklace, and of course the $1.50 14K pin.

    Picking has been pretty good. Only have some of it photographed but will go ahead and post what I have. Also posted some artwork I found in the art forum.

    This Tibetan box was $4.00.

    This small art deco planter was $2.00. Thought it would be easy to identify but no luck so far. Has a USA mark on the side. Will post to PGP if I don't get it identified.

    This celluloid faux ivory box was also $2.00.

    This small Czech/Bohemian crystal vase is from Atelier Veselous. Signed, accordingly. Bought for $3.00.
    thriftglass42.jpg

    McCoy planter bowl was $4.00.
    thriftpot18.jpg

    Tall red decanter was only $3.00. Am hoping the matching glasses show up. Bohemian?
    thriftglass43.jpg

    Picked up a piece of Nemadji awhile back. These 2 small companion pieces showed up a couple days later. $2.00 each.
    thriftpot19.jpg

    This is the large serving-size Fiestaware bowl. Had to spring $5.00 for it.

    Small Cuzco pottery box was $2.00

    This 12" cut crystal vase was only $3.00. Was filthy but no etching to the glass and it cleaned up nicely. See some being sold as Victorian and/or ABP. This is really from the 60s or so, isn't it?
    thriftglass44.jpg

    Good find is this small Ozark roadside tourist vase for $3.00. Just shy of a $100.00 in the right market.
    thriftpot21.jpg

    Advertising ashtray for B.F. Goodrich. Looks like it has never been used. Bought for $2.00.

    This Hall teapot is pristine. Bought for $4.00.

    Not too long ago I found a cheap Ozark pottery piece. It sold fast in my case at the antique mall.

    It is surprizing how much it has appreciated. The vase above is just shy of 6" tall. Large vases can easily bring up to $400.00.

    Mine was maybe 5" wide, 4" tall. I think I got it for $1 and sold it for $40. That's a good margin!

    Brad I swear that crystal vase looks like a beer glass ! A couple more finds,Ive got a tiny backlog and never seem to catch up.
    I swore off things like this as we have too many,but she was so lovely I had to !Dare I say I like her more than Royal Doulton ?
