Thanks! I don't know if you ever looked through it, but I did a thread specifically on brewery collecting awhile back.

Nice find, Tom. You have the beerobelia!

My most recent acquisition. Been wanting one of these!

Very cool, Tom!

 

[Bamaboots]

Another cool find, Tom. I have looked through the thread. Impressive.

 

[AtomicEraTom]

Thank you for the kind words, it's been my life's work, I guess you could say!

No hat inside [emoji20] but still cool for $3

You can always put a hat in it Dale. Nice find.

My wife found this Sterling pin (in the same shop that I found a hat) and I found these hand-stamped Sterling baby rings at an outdoor swap. $5 for the pin, $2 for all four rings.

 

[BobHufford]

Went back to the Cabool, MO outdoor flea market. Temps were in the upper 30s, so the turnout was low. The same 94-year-old lady who sold the baby rings above was there and was covering some acoustic guitars with this old blanket that had Native American themed graphics. She sold it to us for $3. The photo shows it folded twice.

Another table had these two depictions of Jesus for $2 total. The one on a slice of wood show a 1942 copyright and is marked with a nearby town name. The tin-foil art version has a pretty old frame, but I don't know how old it is. My daughter has since run off with it.

 

[dh66]

Score!! That blanket is great, and so are the vintage Jesus pictures. Of the two, you ended up with the one I like best.

 

[BobHufford]

Found these vintage triangle head scarfs at a thrift store running a half-price sale. Pretty sure they date back to the "Laugh In" era (circa 1969). They still have the original price tags.

Also found this British sweater. The tag appears fairly old and the narrow and tall waist band suggests the same. 1970s?

Great find! All I come across around here are Budweiser and Avon steins for the most part.

 

[AtomicEraTom]

Doing my best lol

Killin it, Tom.

Purchased them as a lot. Don't know the story behind them, but they're still in a group, in the china hutch lol

Hmmm, am I detecting a pattern here?

Mader's is a very popular restaurant in Milwaukee, still there. It's a few blocks down 3rd St. from where my Grandfather grew up.

Great find! All I come across around here are Budweiser and Avon steins for the most part.

Thank you! Never stop shopping haha

Nice haul, Tom! Some amazing stuff there.

I got this Donald Duck playing the accordion from eBay. I don't think he's official, as it says Japan on the bottom. I'm guessing 50s or 60s.

This plate, and this creamer I got at the thrift store. The plate is made in Japan by Fairway, and the creamer is made in USA. The creamer is very heavy.
