Don't know where you live, but its not too late to see it in person. I've spent lots of time in their silver room, and plan to go to the exhibit...
Why are your pics so small? I think you used to post larger pics; these are too hard to see. Can't even tell what are the materials of this?
Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) got a ton of Gorham silver and their records when they went out of business years ago and has a room on...
I agree that rivets look fine, but the use of a round manufactured washer on each rivet points to being not a very early repair. And in general, I...
Nice chair! Curious how much it will cost to ship? You have more guts than me to buy at auction without seeing it firsthand in preview. The...
Originals will be hard, especially finding more than 9 matching originals. The ones you found are kind of expensive by the time you buy more than...
Best wishes to work out your issues. As to your chair, your pics are small and not the best. But from what you showed, it looks like a nice mid...
Sorry, komokwa, for this aside about a different type of rug. I agree yours looks older than the similar ones you and I found; if you look on a...
Are you sure? From underneath, looks like made of galvanized steel, with undercoat white paint, with top coat grey paint? Easy enough to scratch...
The one in your pic is a fairly common style, popular in the late 19th and early 20th century up to WW2; I run into them fairly often. In my...
I am more interested in collecting old Caucasian rugs myself, though I have passing knowledge of other oriental carpets and a few lying around. I...
This is the difference between authentic used (or at least usable) masks, and reproductions solely for decorative appeal. I collect ethnic masks...
I'm not sure when to date this crate to. Size 31x15x16 inch. The stamps on top (Wilson $1) were first printed in 1938, and the "Air Force Postal...
Awesome! Thank you!!
Thanks. So $50 book in better condition, makes this one rather "meh". Kind of fun to browse through though. Thanks for the pointer; I'll try...
I wasn't sure whether this was the original edition printed in 1855 or a reprint. And whether it is a good find or just "meh". I saw a ton of...
Looks mid-century (1950's or so) to me. Not really collectible and not attractive to the MCM collectors.
The number on the pull is visible because the ring is upside down. Loosen the nut inside and flip it around 180deg and the number will be hidden....
Does anyone else think the figure on the right could have a skull for a face? [IMG] I'm not convinced it is as old as you think, for some of the...
This book has some condition issues, and isn't THAT old (1855 - but is that the printed date)? Based on the number of reprints maybe its an...
