Great, that's awesome, thanks! I will post more, but need time to pull the rest together. Are there any other names that one should keep an eye...
MCM sells here, retail, online, etc. Low end MCM sells as does high end - there is still a market for that. Authentic early american (Empire and...
Sorry, but you asked for it! Thanks. Here's the lineup of what I have next to my computer. More upstairs along with some interesting inkwells and...
I seem to have a thing for dome top boxes in old paint, so would have picked up the blue one you snagged. Late 19th century country I'd say -...
Since you're talking MontBlancs, if you don't mind me side-tracking a bit, I have a DB142928 W. Germany ballpoint, black plastic with gold. Can...
Thanks for responses. Here are (hopefully) much better and more representative pictures taken with a real camera on white background. Merry...
Well I have to admit that these pics look like crap. Did the max size change? I needed to keep making them smaller until it would finally accept...
Thought the decoration and construction on this jar to be hand decorated and a bit better than obvious recent reproductions, but don't know age or...
I think the difference is that you are running a business and have always viewed it as such. I haven’t been. One test in my state is whether you...

Chair is turned on a lathe, not hand carved. And not a folding chair, though similar in style to some of the folding chairs made at the time....
My question is, which pieces are worth more than a high scrap value? I have hundreds of pieces weighing tens of pounds that I’ve collected as...
I was at Costco today and they had a pile of Levi’s in two sizes only (but one that fit me) for $10 a pair. Guess I saved $113,990.
Short version is that there were three English cabinet makers who also published books of furniture designs in the late 1700s, Chippendale,...
And I just bought some button down shirts there this summer. I didn’t see any undershirts for $1000 though. They admit in the text that the jeans...
Any tag underneath on the upholstery? Pic of that for age? Missing one of the stretchers on the bottom. Left handed? 20th century, designed by...
