This Wonderful petite walnut caned
rocker is amazing, truly elegant design. The caneing is in
excellent condition. This caneing pattern is called six way. This is
36" high at the back, 15 1/2"from floor to seat and the seat
is 14"wide. There are some very subtle signs of repair on this
chair. It's light and I would think it would hold some one in the
125 to 150 lb. range. The arm rests are distinctive and I'm still
researching.

This is an extraordinary thing, a
completely intact Kerosene Heater from the early 1890’s. It
exemplifies the ornate design and built to last forever character of the
gay 90’s. There is the remnant of a wick, though not usable. The drip
pan and stack are sheet steel and the burner parts are brass. The roller
base that holds the drip pan the legs, font and the fabulous ornate top
with burner for cooking under it, are all cast iron. Please look at the
intricate cast iron top and the finial. This is really special. It
easily disassembles with a few pins, which
is good for shipping. The whole thing weighs 40 lbs. depending on where
you are, this plus boxing up will be a shipping expense. Click the

price: $1200. Plus

Bolo in great shape with leather
sheath. The best guess is about 1890 the blade shape is most unusual and
it seems
to be signed, though that was not the general practice. It weighs
slightly over 2 lbs. and is 25 1/2 inches long.

Elbert and his wife, Alice, were among the fatalities onboard the
Lusitania.

Not antique but very retro. I
don’t know how old these are. They appear to have been promotional toys and
they have been sitting in stock rooms for an unknown number of
years. I have 85 pcs. All warped in tissue in like new condition.
You press down on the driver’s head and the little car takes off. The case
indicates they came from Budapest and the toys seem very well made. The cars
measure 3 5/8long by 2 wide by 2 high. Their really cool, like something from a
different time. Make me an offer on the lot or purchase one. $5.oo and you
own one.
