Delete .... Had posted a different song but it actually the same as the above. Seems it was written in 1941 so my box can't be any older than that.
Cheryl, Thanks so much! Great link! I never would have thought Japanese. Checked ebay and there is a green one like mine currently listed that I...
Thanks! I couldn't believe that it was just sitting there with all kinds of people milling about. The market here is really wacky. There is...
Thanks Owned! There is an identical ornament box in the lot that has 1978 written on the front with the name of the people that gifted it to the...
In comparing closely to the Roseville Ivory II pieces on Russco blanks, I don't think this is Roseville. The Roseville pieces have three ridges...
For cleaning, you could use most any type of cleaner as long as you do not get it too wet. Anything greasy could be cleaned with mineral spirits....
I don't see a pic of your complete trunk but, from what I can see, I would say circa 1890. A wide variety of leather trunk handles are available...
Excellent example that is likely by the same maker and attributed as American. I see it sold for only $200.00 Edit: I see it is marked as sold...
The thrift put out a lot of ornaments really late this year. I had the opportunity to buy a large lot of vintage ornaments for $9.00 a couple...
Haven't posted here in awhile. have mostly been buying furniture and newer junk that goes straight to the store. here are a few things.........

The silver casing just reads; Thorens Made in Switzerland. I think this is probably all original as made.
The pot is well glued to the platform. I thought the shaft might unscrew from the mechanism but I could not get it to do so and I did not want to...
This is definitely oak and your drawer sides are also oak. This would typically point toward English manufacture but there are some other things...
Picked up this musical rotating jardiniere at the thrift store several years ago right before I moved. Packed it away before being able to do any...
These are nice. Doubt they are Roseville or Hull but can't tell you who. the pic of the mark is too blurry to see. I would think from the 40s.
I wasn't seeing the C but, if you look closely, there is the lower tail of it showing off to the left. I am confident that you have it.
Does look a lot like the example Mill Cove provided.
Might it say Afton? It also looks like there might be the word Ware under that and 1905. I get an across the pond vibe from this.
It would certainly help it. I would be more inclined to tandem a board the entire length with glue and screws to give double the thickness to...
Separate names with a comma.
