This is a treasure hunt -- be prepared to dig and who knows what all you'll find!
This one-owner home was built in the 50s and saw 9 children raised here. Filled with memories and items from every decade since.
Lots of collectible and practical finds here ... everything priced to go home with you.
Some really nice ephemera: vintage road maps and my favorites are all the brochures from the 1951 Auto Show (killer graphics, pristine condition), and brochures and manuals on home and interior design from the 50s.
There is an Oriental cloisonne lamp with dragon handles that had been tucked away in the attic for years and certainly goes back much further than the mid-century. An awesome piece.
We've got toys and games, tons of Christmas, some nice wall decor, a tool room that will let you hunt and gather for hours, plenty of kitchen and decor items, sewing and crafts .... you find what you want and we'll make you an offer you won't want to refuse! Lots of this is sold by the bag ... it's a really good sale worth a visit or two.
The basement tool room is a veritable corunucopia of "stuff" ... dig through the drawers and boxes, fill up a bag or box (or two or three), and let's make a deal.
Cash and checks cheerfully accepted; Visa, MasterCard and Discover over $50.
...and, as always, a Kiss on your way out the door.
