Wow, @anundverkaufen !

 

The engine is Lake Shore and Michigan Southern

 

Thanks Terry, also figured out that the cars are Pullman’s.

 

That hung in a station, probably in an office, originally. Pretty sweet!

 

Be still my heart, I found a footstool with the chair!! I'm excited, burnt orange, pocket on the side, the base swivels like it supposed to, life is good

 

Makes me want to put my feet up. For your own use, CX, or resale?

 

Looks very comfortable. And the pocket should be useful, too.

 

Nice....my Dad had that one but covered in a fake leather....

 

This is a keeper for me Lucille
It is comfortable! These are so well designed, you sit back with your feet on the stool, heaven!
The pocket was perfect for keeping the remote and the TV Guide handy - I don't know if they make TV Guide anymore.

This is the cheesy velour type material, the cats love it too

 

I'm not an orange freak, but if the cats like it close enough!

 

cxgirl, I LOVE that burnt orange velour set!!!!! I love all the furniture you found, my kind of decor! Evelyb, I love the blue zircon brooch- they are one of my favorite stones. And Bear, I am partial to garnets, always buy them, they are my dad's birthstone.

I was awakened at 7:05 a.m. by my new furniture delivery.... Bob's Discount Furniture had some cheapo bedroom furniture I fell in love with. I have been looking for a nice vintage set, they are scooped up at the crack of dawn here or they are sold in pieces, but this works well for me. I will post pics later....I redid my bedroom, I got a beautiful West Germany? milk glass lamp with a mid-century bell lamp shade at a thrift last year, goes great with everything. I will post that pic later. No jewels, winter time, but an antique show is coming up next weekend.

 

This weekend I found a lousy cold. I did manage to get to the Ill Will and walk around, but didn't buy anything.

 

Very nice everyone.
Sorry Ruth that you are under the weather.

I went out to a few sales today and froze my bum off waiting to get into the first sale.
I got a few Lefton Snow Bunnies, a vintage cook book and a vintage sheet NOS NIP.

 

Just for you, Pearls:

 

LOL SBSVC
That looks a bit like me now.

 

A few recent purchases. I can't pass up cool pieces to add to the hoard!
