<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 10660436, member: 37"]I have that same Oliver. It was my great grandparents. When my grandparent's passed, it was to be sold at auction with most of their other furnishings. When it came up for bid it was bringing next to nothing so I bought it ($10 if I remember correctly). I was 12 and it was my first auction purchase. This, along with a walnut spool bed in pieces that did not sell and came home with me, started my lifelong obsesssion with antiques.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
