My brother scored this at a Goodwill in Indianapolis and brought it to me when he came down recently for a visit.

While waiting for the wife to do some shopping. Picked up a display mannequin from a JC Penny's going out of business sale in a small town call Snohomish. $35.00. Thought it would make a good display for my small jacket problem.

A little set of German nesting cups - they've been on my dresser for decades. Can't remember where I got them. About an inch across.

Thanks Greg. I'll fill it with something good for you next time you're down farther south.

Jacobean style sideboard, around 1910-1925, once sold by a local furniture store, found at a garage sale right next door for $60. One door is wonky and a drop pull handle has been replaced with something sorta kinda close, but we had a spot for it. These are before and after images. It holds dishes, tablecloths, silverware and, obviously, hooch.
I wish it hadn't been refinished, as the color is now wrong and the polyurethane finish is super incorrect. Eh. It works.

My wife has been collecting Nambé ware for decades. It's always fun to find a piece at a thrift store. These are two recent finds. One dates to 1956.

Here's a couple finds from last Saturday. One dollar each. I hope I do as well when I go out tomorrow.

A 60s vintage Swagerty Kook-A-Lā-Le Uke. It was designed so you could plunge that long neck into the sand when you want to go out for a surf session.

Some really old aviator sunglasses. The delivery label on the box just has the person's name and the small town they lived in. I guess there was no need for an address in a really small town. If there's anybody knowledgeable about who made these I'd love to know.

Binyon made the glasses it looks like.

My mother literally has all of these and then some. How valuable are they?
