That’s the great part about acquiring knowledge of good and valuable things. You don’t need to look something up to know it’s good. Still pays to...
Your digging is appreciated! Neat to know about Allentown’s cigar history either way. That article would put the peak of the local industry around...
Back visiting family where I have some of my stuff stored. Included is the never ending bag of mostly costume jewelry that I grab a few handfuls...
At $3 each those would have been a steal and a half even if they were not silver.
Not to comment on the piece you posted by any means. I barely looked at it and wouldn’t probably know anyways. However I feel like half the...
Oh haha. Didn’t notice it was two. :)
Ooh thanks! Cool that it’s an old family business. I can’t read NYT articles without a subscription unfortunately. I did find this site which...

[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Paid up $$ for this guy on one of the alternate online marketplaces. More than I usually would. I think I’ll still do well...
I’ll definitely leave the frame alone. While I like it, it’ll be moving on down the line eventually. I’ll keep it stored out of the sun until...
Here’s where I bumped into it. I want to say it was in F&F too. One of the & Co. pieces is listed on eBay....
Interesting thought, could be. Do you see anything you can share? Maybe their name is Lelelele Lelelela. That’s what I see in the feet :)
Got this spoon in a lot at auction. From a very high end silver collectors estate. It’s pretty rough but I’d like to ID it still. The maker I can...
I’ve been wanting a sterling measuring spoon (Tbs) for a while now. Hard to find and expensive when I do see one. Maybe I’ll have to buy one of...
It belonged to the du Pont family. I wish the signature gave a bit more to go on.
great presentation IMO. [ATTACH]
So around 8”x10” exposed under glass.
