FRESH ANTIQUE & VINTAGE HAUL | CHECKING CONDITION TO RESELL

look at that huge stack of pollution coming out of there and that was all over the country at that time and people just took it for granted because that's how you got around hi I'm George the antique nomad come with me as I wandered the country in search of valuable vintage amazing antiques and cool collectibles we'll buy sell and traded antique mall shops and shows estate sales flea markets thrift stores anywhere people go to find really interesting things that just aren't made anymore so come on let's go hey everybody its George the antique Nomad welcome back this is the second half of my haul video I was preparing for shows in Nashville Tennessee in Spokane Washington and in packwood up in the mountains out there when I need us happen so I put everything aside and I just now opened it up to see what I got the last few weeks before things came to a halt because I'd been buying a lot for the shows and I had some pretty interesting things so I shared some of them in the last video and then realized it was way too much for one video so we're back for part two so we're gonna start with the little things that are easy to ship and then we'll work our way up to the big showstopper stuff I'd like to start first over here because we're in Kentucky right now I wanted to show this piece this says Merry Christmas and it's hand-painted but on the back it says em a Hadley and that stands for merry Hadley she was the person who really brought art wear to Louisville stoneware and this piece is something that was made after she passed on but it is her design and they do paint ma Hadley to this day on the backs of the pieces that Herald from her original designs something for Santa's cookies or something and it's worth about $10 next to it we have this little figure and it's quite refined actually if you look at it closely the hand painting for being so small is quite good and that's because it's German and it probably is from Dresden it's a miniature and it would date before the second world war because the mark on it simply says Germany in an ink stamp with older pieces if it says Germany we know it's before the war because after the war it would have been one of the German zones like us zone or British zone during the occupation followed by West Germany until the wall fell in 1990 and you would never mistake that as a peace made after 1990 so therefore it's before the war and even though it's quite small it's probably worth twenty to twenty-five dollars because it's so well done that's a neat piece that is a I believe a ten year Buick Service pin which means somebody who worked for the Buick company in Michigan back in the 1920s 30s or 40s got that as an award for having lasted that long this here is a desk clip and I had a whole set of these from an estate in Columbus and they sold right away so when I saw this I picked it up again it's brass it does have some sort of a foundry mark on it that looks to be stamped in in a way that is again pre Second World War you can also tell it's got aged because look how shiny the brass is here on the top surfaced it's oxidized because it's been out exposed to the elements for many decades so that's a good way to tell that a piece has some age because it's not all shiny bright and new it is from a bank I assumed it was a safety deposit key at one time and that is a bank here in Kentucky again that came from an estate in Florida I always like to take things back to where they belong then next to me here these are Satsuma I've shown you some other Satsuma vases these came to me very recently from a consignment in Florida for their good quality but they're not super refined if you look at the details in the painting there's a lot of detail in color but it's kind of splashed on the original period of Satsuma in the 1870s and 80s they would have been very careful not to go outside the lines and everything was really detailed so listen to this well I tap it and you'll learn something about looking for damage now let's tap this one and hear what it sounds like now the reason this one had a dull sound and this one had a sound like a belt is because this one has a hairline crack now you have to be careful when you're doing the tap test you want to make sure you don't hit it too hard you want to make sure that it's not a piece that has been damaged to the point we're just tapping on it is going to break it more so be gentle when you do that but the difference in the sound this rings like a bell because this is all still intact this doesn't because somewhere in here and it's actually right in here where you won't be able to see it is a hairline crack now this piece also has damage on the foot in the form of the chip I wanted to show that because the question is these two pieces obviously are a set but if you had to choose one or the other which would you choose an experienced collector would choose the one with the chip over the one with the hairline and the reason is once a chip is there it's there it's not going to change it won't grow it won't get bigger a hairline crack if you set this in a hot window on a hot summer day it might grow if you set it in a cold place in the wintertime the crack might grow and so that's why collectors usually are more forgiving of a chip than they are of a crack as far as the value of these even though they're a little bit as is they are very nice their stately they would look good on a mantle or in a collection and the value is still probably in the hundred seventy five to two and a quarter range in this condition this spoon I thought had a really neat shape it is sterling and I like sterling but I loved that it was slotted and it's with the Stars that's going to be sometime in the late 1800s and the star motif is something that we think of as being patriotic but back then it was more of a naturalistic Art Nouveau look and you can see all the naturalistic designs up the handle pretty little pieces of silver and sterling flatware that people can just or put out for a special occasion always sell and that's somewhere in the 25 to 30 dollar range retail these days now I wanted to show you this grouping here these are snuff bottles some of them are hand-painted some are painted on the outside some are reverse painted this one is plastic made to look like cinnabar this one is plastic made to look like bone or ivory the reason they're made of plastic and the reason I wanted to show you these is they're all very nice but they're all 1980s and 90s vintage they were very popular to collect we see a lot of these they do have a market they sell for about 20 or 25 dollars apiece which is about what they sold for new but they should not be confused with antique snuff bottles which will typically have a much different type of wear or feel to them I don't have one to show you by comparison but one thing to notice is look how all of these tops all these stoppers are the same on all of these that's not something I would expect with older pieces I would expect there to be some variation so the fact that all of those are jeweled in the same way tells us that they all came out of a production facility in Asia and then this just because I love anything smiley face things were a little stressful and tenuous at the beginning of all of this so I thought well I need some happy and so I got it these happy face clocks when they work which this one does I never buy them if they don't you have to make sure they work and also that the plastic isn't cracked or scraped or over cleaned to the point where it's fogged so this in this condition 25 to 30 dollars again so this print came to me practically for free at the end of an estate sale I don't know why it didn't sell because this is a very popular scene I think it wasn't notice because it was in the corner of the room and this is by an artist named Arthur deal Arthur deal was an Englishman who moved to Provincetown Massachusetts and he did a lot of impressionist scenes of landscapes but he traveled all over the world and this particular one is one of his most famous this is Venice you can see the gondolas at the bottom this particular piece has a 1920s frame these were very popular we see this particular print in estates fairly often all over the country because this was a very popular print in the 1920s so the value isn't extremely high probably in the 30 to 35 dollar range and the frame is in good shape but it has somewhere from over the years to my mind it is acceptable to touch that up if you want because you're looking at a decorative object and this was a manufactured frame so you're not covering up some original finish that can't be restored this also came from an estate in Florida I was called in by friends of mine who conduct estate sales and they said we have this great house full of wonderful things and you need to see it and we're doing pre-sales because we can't have an on-site sale and I said okay great and when I went there it turned out to be someplace that I'd already been called in to buy the owners before my friends got the estate sale and I thought I'd seen everything in the house but I wanted to be nice and when I went around the corner in one room here this was sitting and I said oh where did this come from and they said oh it was up in the attic and the family just found it and I thought well this is why you don't assume if you're going to an estate sale that you've seen everything on the first pass because this is a good print I bought it for $60 it's got some problems which I'll show you but it is by Saito and Kyoshi Saito was one of the premier Japanese modernist block print makers and he worked in a form that was pretty radical for Japan at the time rather than the ukiyo-e form where he would have been collaborating with other print makers this was done by him solely he controlled all aspects of the process and that was a pretty new idea in Japan because they're a much more collaborative society he was very popular he won a big award in Brazil in the early 1950s ended up travelling all over and doing different images that were all this sort of flat aspect modernist in woodblock prints his Parisian scenes are particularly popular because the Japanese loved Paris and he didn't do a lot of them this one is from Mexico and it's number 10 of a run of 75 dated night 18:56 I have not been able to find any evidence that he did a lot of work in Mexico so I'm very curious to see what the marketplace will say about this pieces this size usually are selling in the 3 to $500 range there is one aspect of it though that you can see here in the matting it has spotting this is what we call foxing now Florida has a real problem with this anyway because if you don't use your climate control like if you're a Snowbird and you leave for the summer and you don't really keep the air conditioning on or you shut off a room you will end up with spots and things but the real culprit I'm going to show you as we turn this around here is the real culprit it is this this is cardboard look how yellowed it is already cardboard is something that ages it's made very cheaply it has lots of acid content in it the acid content leeches into your picture that's what causes foxing in those spots so if you have prints at home that you want to keep and they have a cardboard backing I highly recommend that you take them to a frame shop ask them to replace that with an acid-free mounting and while they're at it they should check the matting as well because a lot of the older matting is done with cardboard nowadays people know better and they use acid free on nice prints like this so that's a tip for the wise and with that I'm going to get up and we're gonna look at all this stuff well there's there's more a table - here we go I always like these and there was a stack of them this one was at the bottom and it was the only one in good shape it's a 1950s Pepsi tray with the ferris wheel and the beach and the boardwalk and this is just a really fun graphic I had a lot of success selling this particular one before even though it's not one that's super rare because it's just so colorful and so much fun and we can date it by the back where we see that it has the Pepsi Cola with one dot Pepsi Cola always the bottle cap logo before 1973 and in the 50s they changed it from two dots between Pepsi and Cola to one so that tells us 50s and 60s it has a price tag of 25 on it I actually got it for Half Price it's worth about 30 I always liked railroad memorabilia I collected a Cho railroad stuff when I was a kid got interested and have looked for it ever since this is from a house that had an H over L road set up they said oh we would let you look at that but we've already promised it to a friend from the club who says he's going to give us a really good price better than a dealer would give and I watched him pay 200 bucks for this gigantic collection of stuff and I just rolled my eyes but there was nothing I could say however he didn't look at the books and paper so I looked through those and this one American Flyer is the 1950 era version for some kid who had the American Flyer set and people who collect these now like to have them with their sets so that was a good buy all of these cost about $2 each these are all ticket sleeves and you think well who in the world would want those well when they have to do again with extinct railroads or extinct Airlines then people have interest in them these were for the roomette for the Silver Meteor on the seaboard line for mr. Hartley who is leaving st. Petersburg Florida on May 21st and under government order who boy it cost him 165 bucks to go wherever he went I mean that's actually a lot of money for back then for a train but that was how you got around these are 1950s and jet travel really wasn't a thing yet but diesel engines were a new thing with railroads so you see the diesel engine prominently featured on all of the stuff from this era so this of course is Pluto the pup this is American Potteries from about 1940 it was sanctioned by Walt Disney and he's supposed to be sniffing so this is known as sniffing Pluto I had one of these about 20 years ago and my friend Tom who has epic antique in Seattle and I were doing the show together and he had the Mickey Mouse who had one hand up and one hand down every time I would come back to the booth Mickey would be standing behind Pluto goosing him and I kept thinking who is doing that I was sure it was a customer and of course it was my friend having fun anyhow I got this one for 20 they still sell for around 45 to 65 so that was a nice price and you'll notice that the clay is the same color on the bottom as the body so instead of painting this they actually just mixed the color and end of the clay so that the clay would turn out that color and they didn't have to do an extra step this little piece is a shaker style box this came from Florida but it really is meant for this part of the country this is where they were from originally and here in the East Coast and you see where it's got the band wrapped around you also see a couple little nails in this one that are round so that tells you that it is probably 19th or 20th century the really really old ones they actually would be joined in different ways than that but it's an old piece nonetheless and it's got this screen print of the gold fruit on it that makes it more interesting to people these sell for about twenty-five to thirty dollars this is about Northern Pacific this one is about train wrecks that looks fairly gruesome what's interesting to me about these is that they say Bonanza they talked about in our Bonanza series but this was all by a company called superior publishing out of Seattle and superior did a lot of these sorts of special collector interest books in the 60s and they went out of business and there are people who look just for superior publishing books because they're collectible in their own right so that's a name to look for if you're out there another thing I find that there's interest in and on occasion if you can find someone from the town is old yearbooks so if they're really inexpensive I'll pick them up sometimes you can get reprints of old yearbooks now and so a lot of people have satisfied their need that way so I don't generally pay a lot for these unless there's a great signature or a celebrity who went to that school they're not over ton but they're still worth something and sometimes interesting things fall out of them like we see so the must have been the patch for I assumed their high school team or something so gee we got a freebie out of that was not expecting that at all and you can tell it's 1949 by the hairstyles you've got the new look here and the long page boys and all of that so they're kind of fun to read through especially if it's from a town you're in because you might recognize somebody or the ancestor of somebody this here came from the local auction the last time I was here and stayed here so it is a new whole East to me and this is enamel where it's in pretty good condition overall and it's a wreck that hangs on the wall for all your utensils this would have been something made probably in the teens looking at the shape and design it's nice heavy enamel where enamel where is also known as granite where when it's this gray color a lot of the enamel wear is just speckled and this actually has veins running through it but it's got the wall rack and everything somebody on the back again don't believe what you read wrote that it was worth $450 I think it was 150 and then they changed it to a four however it really is probably worth about a hundred or a hundred and a quarter these days I would expect especially because it's in good shape and has all the pieces so that was exciting to find and I got it at the auction and I think I did Oh 45 or 50 for it maybe a little less actually this is a Wade piece we see a lot of little Wade figurines like the T figures but they couldn't get by on just the little pieces so they did dinnerware serving pieces gift ware and this is a nice hand-painted piece which is also a little unusual for them this is going to date to probably right before the Second World War because it has the copper luster handles and rim and you'll see copper luster originally in the 1850s but in the 1930s there was collector interest in the original copper luster from the 19th century so they started making new pieces that had that style and so there's a whole bunch that we see these days most of what we see is from the 1930s and not so much from the 1850s but it's nice quality and this is probably a 15 or 20 dollar piece I got this at the last Florida State the day that I left Florida and it needs to be cleaned obviously but it's cool it's got a good colorful graphic it works it is yeah no wonder I feel chilly only 65 I'm so spoiled it also has all of these advertisements for the various things that they made and the temperatures at which they could be used thinner and reducer selector is what they're saying so these are various different things to affect your paint and I just thought it was really neat and had a good graphic and I think it was only 12 or 15 dollars and they sell for about 45 to 65 I believe it was actually sitting in the garage when I was walking out of the house next to the garbage can and I said oh would you sell that too and they said oh you want bad thing and I said sure so here it is I like coin counters a lot this was also from the same estate in Florida these always sell they usually go for gosh thirty thirty-five dollars because people will actually use these if they've got the right coins this one has pennies nickels dimes and I did that wrong pennies nickels dimes quarters and then you just push this and out it comes and that makes change for you these would have been worn by people who were Hawking items who were selling things at a sports stadium or in a crowd of people where they had to keep it belted to them but have it handy nowadays you don't see these very much because most things are in dollars that back when a quarter was something that could buy you an entire meal they had to have coin change so this is another Kentucky piece but the reason I bought it is because it's baseball related of course we're not having baseball season now but it would have been very timely and I get these anytime I see these older players in these uniforms because people like them just for the look and they have such a tradition to them but I also buy them because once in a while you'll find someone who's a famous player now this says McLain on the uniform and McLain would have been Calhoun Kentucky that is an area that used to have a lot of coal mines this is probably a company team that had a photo for all of its players but the great thing is on the back someone wrote down all of their names and since I'm in this area right now I'm going to take some time to research one of these players might have gone on to have some notoriety because everyone came from somewhere I think this was all of a couple of dollars this was from the last day of thrifting that I got to do before everything locked down it says please keep off grass it was six dollars and it's a metal sign it's gonna be from the 1960s and the customer for this I find is usually somebody who does not actually observe the sign if you know what I mean and we'll just leave it at that I thought this was cool because it's got the old north wind at the top this is an embossed frame from about 1900 it was priced at fifteen at an estate sale it did not sell I ended up paying a few dollars for it at the end I think the reason it didn't sell is because nobody noticed how great the graphic is the embossing is all in good condition this should date to about 1890 it stamped on a very thin tin sheet and then colored to look like bronze this would have been the back and originally it would have had some sort of a prop to hold it up but that easel would be easy to replace with just about anything especially since the slot is still there so I believe someone will really enjoy this for an old photo at the Red Door mall in the video that I shot I talked a lot about how I finally found the date on this bar sign this cost fifteen dollars but it is blow mold and so I think it's worth about double or double and a half here is log cabin syrup and I should point out I also at the very last stop on the last day before lockdown got the log cabin syrup containers this is going to be from the 1950s here 50s and 60s used in the restaurants these were only $2.00 I thought that was a great price the log cabin tins came out pretty much right away in the 1880s when log cabin syrup came out and there were various iterations of them through the years they're all collectible this one was the hundredth anniversary long after they had quit making the metal tins they decided in 1987 for the anniversary to do a special for just a year and put it back in the metal tins again it cost them a lot and so it wasn't really profitable but it was a good way to get attention to the brand and this one is still full of syrup and I paid two dollars for it so I don't know whether to sell it or drink it so this little guys a spaghetti poodle and people love spaghetti poodles these days they loved them in the 50s - back when this one came out this is by thomas from japan and it is a different color than you usually see they're usually pink or white or occasionally blue but this guy is sort of a green gray color and he's playing a bass which means he's a very big poodle and as he's thumping that bass I noticed that I paid with the discount looks like about $10 for him these sell for about 20 to 25 typically we've got piggy banks these came from Red Door Mall they were in the video I did from there the last one before lockdown I bought a number of piggy banks there I like this guy because he's actually an elephant and he is a bank even though he has this head that makes you think that you would drink something out of him the idea was that you would actually put a lock on the back so that your kid brother or sister couldn't get in at all of your money you're shaking your head laughing okay that's stupid and he's wearing a plaid jacket because plaid was big in the 50s especially the early 50s when this was made this is another Japanese piece by a company called whales and you can see the mark there this one is by the American bisk company out of Ohio and I just know that because I've seen this one before in the book it's not marked so you just kind of have to know that this isn't a whole they did quirky with the cork in the nose this is a different company American bisque was in Ohio as well and they were a big maker of cookie jars and related novelties so this fit right into their line again about 1950 and this one you can probably guess from the bright green color that's fired on painted is actually from the 1970s I had never seen these before they had about eight different colors and I thought this color was the happiest so I took it and it's got a mark on the bottom and surprise surprise its Anchor Hocking they are such a huge maker of glass they probably made this glass as well I'm going to hold this up close so you can see this is the A&W Root Beer before they started putting this state map or they're painted logo on here and these I believe are back from about the 1930s and 40s so not as interesting design wise but actually at least as collectible and about the same value eight to ten dollars typically this came from Alabama the mall that I shopped in was the Hannah antiques mall in Birmingham on my way up here right before lockdown and this has the Space Shuttle and is Mark jr. astronaut so it's sort of a different take on the junior pilot wings that the airlines would give out my suspicion is that this was probably given out at the Huntsville NASA station these little banks are called book banks typically although this one's a little different the book banks when you turn them to the side actually look like a book binding whereas this one has this deco scaling and is more of a skyscraper style but they still fall into the category you would put your money in and then it would count it up and when you got to the level you want it for your savings you take it into the Dallas federal savings in Oregon Polk County it says and in the bottom would be this and you would take the key from the bank and open it up someone obviously decided they needed to get the money out on their own and they didn't have the bank's key so they took it on themselves to bend it just a little to try to get it out but it's intact and these again sell for about twenty to twenty-five dollars I like to this one because it's a heavy wooden mirror the frame and most of this is actually carved wood and it's quite heavy and substantial that makes it earlier this is going to be 1920s this came out of the house in Florida but it looked like something that really needed to be in another part of the country so I brought it with me I think it was only 20 dollars these also came from the last ditch last moment thrifting right at the end of the last day before a lockdown these are Duncan and Miller and they're called Pall Mall they are very popular in their time they came in different colors clear green red we see a lot of the red they came in a larger size as well I used to buy these all the time the market kind of fell when eBay came along and people realized that they were a little more widespread than we thought but they still sell for about twelve dollars each and when I saw these in perfect condition at the thrift store and they were $2.99 apiece I thought yeah that's that's worth getting so they came home with me also from there for a quarter was this Moroccan amethyst ashtray from the 1960s that was Hazel Atlas they did a ton of different pieces in the Moroccan amethyst line in this beautiful purple color not many depression or elegant glass makers made purple because it's a hard color to do so that was fun to find I buy fish mounts when I see them because they sell in sporting active areas particularly here in Kentucky and I thought this one was fun the guy had a little bit of entertainment and whimsy about it because it's not just the fish which is a handsome enough mount but he mounted the lure he caught it with he mounted the reel that he caught it with and he put a little caution tape around the whole thing so it makes me think that this one was probably a real struggle I have a feeling that this one was hard to get into the boat and so he really wanted to celebrate it and here it is for us all to see I showed the green Wedgwood in the other part of this video this is the black Wedgwood the Wedgwood basalt this was one of the original colors done in the early 1800s when Josiah Wedgwood came up with a way of making this slipware and then in the 1950s and 60s when Wedgwood started to introduce other colors again the basalt ware came out in a few lines it's probably the most popular color of Wedgwood pieces in this color almost always sell right away if I'd had a chance to take it anywhere it probably would be gone this is a really good piece its Budweiser on both sides its celluloid again I've had a few things of celluloid plastic this haul but this one is popular with breweriana collectors and the reason is not just because it's Budweiser but because this is a foam scraper in the old days it wasn't so easy to pour a beer without a lot of suds and foam forming at the top and so what you would do is you would take the foam scraper after you poured it and you push this over the top of the glass knock the foam off let it settle a little more put a little more beer in and then serve it and it's on both sides this was in a drawer in a desk with a bunch of desk supplies and I said oh well how much is this and they said oh five dollars well it's worth probably 75 or 85 and so I was really happy to get that and it was a professional Estate Sale organization and they didn't seem to care so I thought well alright good bargain for me a couple of pieces of austoria american this was probably the most popular of all elegant glassware made in this country this pattern came out in 1910 and it's cubic because it was loosely based on cubism and the Picasso asked paintings of the time so it's considered very modern at that time now it's considered a very traditional piece of glass that have seen in a lot of older American homes these pieces are not as expensive as they used to be but they are still collectible and especially when you get good shapes like this I only paid $5 apiece for these two this one's in today's market probably 20 and this one maybe 25 to 30 with the shape so I was happy to get them for that price also at that sale and I don't usually buy these but it this again so inexpensive just a few dollars this is mccoy and it's the strawberry transfer we're from the early 70s I liked it because it was McCoy I liked it because it was just a few dollars and I figured someone else will enjoy it too strawberries are always a good motif and a very 70s motif you see a lot of strawberry wear back then this doorstop is cast-iron it is really heavy I'm going to try not to drop it because that would hurt a lot sometimes you see really great multicolored versions of this and sometimes they're just a plain single color like this one in the plainer colors they're worth about thirty-five to forty dollars you can see the original on the back the sort of over glaze that they used on it and then after time it wears away and it becomes more mellow and it turns to this color these are going to be from about the 1920s this is most likely made by Hubley from Pennsylvania and the monochrome one's self or move 30 to 50 dollars typically this is in my Birmingham Alabama mall video and you'll find out what a great deal I got on it the prices have really caught up on these so this is the Jefferson golden hour clock and these came out in the deco period and were so popular that they were made for several decades so you will still find them around they're very popular again now the interest in these has a lot to do with the fact that you can't really see how it works from the outside it appears to work by magic they have a deco feel they have a modernist feel and on the bottom they have a good marking that tells you everything about them the patent date the name of the clock this is a lot of fun I had one of these in my house for years they're silent they run nicely I think they're really cool and I was really glad to find another one hopefully this isn't too hard to see through plastic that this is one of these medallions made of brass or bronze or sometimes silver popular in the 1950s 60s especially had been popular in the teens and 20s before that this one is John Wayne and it says John Wayne American and on the back you have John Wayne on a horse because of course he was most known as a cowboy actor although he did that one really awful Cleopatra movie where they all eventually died of nuclear radiation because they filmed it in the desert during the above-ground testing in the early 50s so he had a very sorry way of passing to the next realm but it's a very collectible piece I've sold these before for twenty to twenty-five dollars I think I got this one for under ten so I believe someone will enjoy that I just love this I have not really ever seen and hadn't heard of one before either but the local auctioneer called me right before the last auction and said I have a lithograph printing stone would you like to bid on it and I said sure what's that and he laughed and said you should look him up so I did there was one form of lithography where they actually used stone stone lithography she's kind of worn but you've got the 4x pills near beer with the art deco gal this would have been from right after the end of prohibition and so she's really fun she's a pinup and that's one side this thing weighs a ton so let me get the other side up because these were used to print beer trace you can see it's a big enormous heavy block of limestone and when they used it enough they could just polish it down and then ink it again and do some more here's the other side oh boy this is definitely not going online I can barely lift it this is a blast spear tray and I'm gonna drop a picture into this so that you can see what the tray looked like when it was printed because it's a very beautiful vibrant red tray this came out in 1926 and I had a little bit of an argument with someone over that because they said that's impossible it was the middle of prohibition old stock was the first non alcohol deer that Blatz made a lot of companies during Prohibition had to figure out something else to do if they had made beer and some of them made malt some of them made ice cream some of them just went out of business but a few of them actually decided they were gonna reformulate their beer not have alcohol so that's where no alcohol beer came from and this one is Blatz beer from the 1920s I just thought this was a really cool thing I paid just under $100 for it common ones of these don't sell for a whole lot more than that but things that have unusual graphics and especially because this is big it's double-sided it's beer related I think this one's a winner and my estimate as an appraiser is that it will sell in the $225 range so once we get to a point where I can take it somewhere to try that we'll test that they are you I don't wear a fur coat in real life but these were a consignment that I got out of Florida she said they were her mother's and they brought them down when they moved there from the north and they were never warm and they're like new and they now are going back up north where they can go to somebody who lives in a cold place like Canada or upstate New York or Alaska which is where most of the customers for these are nowadays I have said before and I am a big believer that if you like fur by old there's lots of nice fur that is just sitting in closets there's no reason to have to make new fur so folks who are not into the fur trade don't have to feel bad about seeing somebody wear one of these if it's a vintage one and that's all I sell and so that's why I took them and we will find a nice new home for them so that these beautiful pelts can at least live on in somebody's wardrobe so the last piece from this haul was this BAM this is a Hasek fan it's from the 50s you could sit on top of this thing it is really heavy they are pretty popular now these are selling in working order which I plug this in and made sure it was four of round 50 to $75 and if it's a groovy color or in really great condition this one's got some scratches and wear on it then they can be as much as a hundred plus so I was happy to get
