<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 143710, member: 78"]Hi,</p><p>Those two tables are gorgeous! People throw out the strangest things. I found a pile (23 pieces) of sterling silver on the trash. The woman said she was tired of polishing it. The best was years ago. An older woman passed away. Her family hired a company to unload the house. They put everything into plastic bags and put on the curb. I spent the entire weekend, dragging one bag home going through it and dragging it back to bring home another. I do not remember what all was in it but at my yard sale of the stuff I made 800 bucks. Most of the stuff was priced under a buck. That was years before the crazy 80s and 90s. I do remember a set of Cherry Blossom in green 40 pieces sold for 15 bucks. It was her "good" set.</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
