Next up is some pottery, purchased by my great grandmother in 1908, made by the Maricopa tribe for the tourist trade. We've been told by an...
I'm going to start a thread here in in the general antique section because my collection is so extensive. I doubt it will all get cataloged here...
Yes, I'm sure it is old, as my grandmother and my great aunt did not collect new stuff. If anyone would like me to take it apart for more...
This coffee grinder measures 6 1/2" by 6 1/2". It was difficult trying to get a good picture of the works inside. I suppose I could remove the...

[ATTACH] First picture shows one whole end of the back of the tray where the lacquer is off. Second picture shows on the front of the tray a...
