Picker's Delight in King's Mountain

Last Day on Sunday.  Discount Day!

Everything is 50% off the price as marked. (There are a few exceptions, such as the tractor.)  With everything priced to seel to begin with, you'll find some great bargains.

Some background information.

Our client grew up off a country road near King's Mountain, and his parents spent over 60 years tucking away lots of interesting pieces in the house and in four different storage buildings.  Now that his mom is in assisted living, it's time to find a new home for everything.  

We're had a great week unpacking and displaying what we have found.  We were right to call this "picker's delight" as this particular sale is a close to an antique store as we have ever coordinated.
