Featured Finds Thread

And my Grandma indeed had the pink ones ! Hers had little bubbles too ! Loving the enameled coaster Sharona. And the cranberry thorn vases. And so much of everyones finds !

 

Hi Sharona,
Sorry was not meant to be rude. I do like the 50s ones but in pink they might be okay with me as they are just not my taste. I am not usually called rude. Sorry

Thanks Johnny and Greg, guess Im a little sensative and just found you agreeing with the comment bothered me. If I thought that...I would not post it....

Hi,
OMG thud......................

You'd love it Sharona and wouldn't want to leave...places, sales and excitement almost seven days per week. Nice finds by the way.

I ain't got nothin' to add to this thread (well I do, but I'll holdout for now ).

@Terry, very nice! Should net you a very, very decent profit.

 

As much as I want to believe.....I'm having trouble with the top of the shield...

 

Love the blue decanter set. I like those fish!!!! I have a pink and lavender bathroom, did it on purpose. Full of retro. My brother said to my husband "Why did you let her have a pink bathroom?" Turns out he chose pale peach for his kitchen.

 

Terry, I am totally dense- is that a gold coin?

 

Oh geez, I am not too dense to google- congratulations Terry! You can buy a lot of pink fish with that!

 

If that coin is legit....thud. I found a whole lotta nothing much this weekend, except a Hamilton Standard belt buckle with belt. That fits. My dad worked there on the Apollo 13 project.

 

It's good

 

For ten bucks a piece I figure I at least got 20 pounds of bronze

Is the market better if I rewire?

 

I don't think so....notice one bulb is the new fangeled type, meaning they must have been in use recently, before being sold.

They're actually quite nice ....elegant even !

 

they musta had nice shades at one time...

 

Re-found this today. Still trying to figure out where it came from It feels like cast iron.

 

Just curious -- what size is that crab? Does it have a "flat" back? Do you think it might be a doorstop (perhaps in a beach/coastal house)?

 

This is the first time I've been able to read through all the posts for the past month. WOW!
So many nice finds, expensive scores and great freebies. Congrats!

 

More of a paperweight; it's about three inches across. My guess is it was made as a souvenir for some GI with too much pay in his pocket.
