Repair Shop In response to Daphne's request for new sidebar topics, I propose that we start a Repair Shop thread. I restore silver, brass and other metals for a living. I have a friend who cleans and repairs oil paintings. Ten years ago we started a club for people who restore fine objects and within a year we'd met quite a few (27) very interesting people - many of whom lived too far from Orlando to come meet with us, and all of whom were too busy to run a growing club. We don't meet...

Well, I just need to get this off my chest, cry for a few moments, and then get on with my life.... About 3-4 years ago I attended an auction where I purchased a large, pulled loop ruby colored glass vase for about $50.00. I thought it was a fabulous vase. The bottom had an old piece of masking tape identifying it as Vineland Glass, NJ 1900. I tried the glass board to get a positive ID, and no response. Usually the glass board can ID almost anything so I was surprised no one recognized...

Local school thing. I knew I was going and knew I would spend money. The pickings were very slim. I bid on and won these. 3 cups and saucers each marked differently on the bottom 2 with crossed arrows (Arnart?)one with numbers only. 2 lily vases both marked "MA". 1 little poppy cup marked "Italy" If it looks like something other than junque, I'll post on PGP. Patty Oh! and Happy Thanksgiving!

This is not really my sort of thing, it came in with some Edwardian greeting cards in it, but I was wondering if there was any market for this sort of thing, and opinions on how old it is. I'm guessing 1950 or so from the style, but it could be earlier. It is about 6 by 4 by 3 inches, and looks a bit greener in real life.In fact. if you mentally replace blue with dull green you have just about got it . I know it says 'World Famous' but I doubt if they were world...

Hey, my husband brought these home tonight. We are really interested in finding out more about them, especially the signatures. We believe two of them to be in a foreign language and the "Mission" painting, all we can make out is "Arturo" as the first name. If anyone can help us out with these, we would greatly appreciate it. TIA!

I've had this posted on a specialty site called "warbirds" for a few days with no luck, I think due to low traffic there, will try here even though this isn't an antique quite yet. But my question would be the same in 2041 if that helps any. Nomen. marked on tube: US NAVY BUREAU OF ORDNANCE AIRCRAFT TELESCOPE SIGHT-MARK V MOD 1 INSPECTOR H.T.M. NO. 4XXX MADE BY WOLLENSAK OPTICAL CO. ROCHESTER NY 1941 Description: Black enameled telescope tube, large red rubber eyecup,...

Someone asked me today how I found this board. I can't really remember..... Glad I did. I have learned about more than ever I thought I'd be interested in. Share your story? Just plain Sue.

Hi. Looking to see if I can find out whether the base metal is brass or bronze? I am thinking bronze because it has a red tint to it? Also, do you think Oriental? What time period do you think these might be from? They measure 5" wide x 4 1/2" tall.

I am so excited to be able to show these to you..these are the (well one of ) windows I told you about. They belong to my boss and came from the basement of the old post office (his dad bought building and turned into a bar, and when my boss sold the bar these where in the basement) I know pictures aren't that good but.. The other window is a train and also has the PO stuff on itMari & Keri Every Little Thing....Gonna Be Alright
