More Treasures

2008-01-21T20:40:00.000-08:00

Here are a few more primitive treasures for your viewing:

An antique dealer tried to purchase this children's high chair today but I refused to sell it to them.

I just call him "Alfred". Arms and legs were cut off during the war.

One of many collections of antiques.

The one and only "Sterling" Wheelbarrow. It is all wooden except the wheel with all the original paint. I can't sell it with a name like that!

Here is an early 1800s baby doll that is also a keeper. Just wanted to show this sweet face to you.

This clock was my very first antique purchase for $10 back about 40 years ago.

Here is a very rare Raynard lamp with beautiful floral details and is signed. I had it appraised by one of Kentucky's finest antique appraisers about five years ago for $3, 500. It is one of the prettiest lamps I have ever seen. It looks like real life blooming lilacs when lit up.

The Party Has Started

2008-01-21T19:02:00.000-08:00

Girls, here is just the beginning of our treasure hunt. The porches are still stacked full. Here are photos at the beginning before we started moving stuff - after selling a truck load of treasures this morning! I will post more photos of our progress. The sewing house is stacked to the ceiling with boxes. It has been a full day with much more to go through. You can click on the photos to view larger.
