Description & Details

I am almost at a loss as to describe to you the extend of each category of collectibles.....I've never seen so many examples in one place before!

The vintage Craftsmen power tools are still humming along after Buster has tweaked them, the handyman tools and supplies and more that you have been waiting patiently to buy will delight every tool man around. We've moved some of the stored items into the house to make space for this next phase in clearing the property and unpacked more advertising ice picks and collectibles relating to ice than you can imagine. The advertising glasses run in the hundreds, and old office desk accessories and brass Art Deco advertising letter openers, as well as brass sword shapes and other advertising designs. The advertising paperweights and letter openers cover the US, and I especially like the vintage wood advertising rulers of all sizes and the simple antique cork screws.

And we have walls of fame for Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, and James Dean.

There is a silver plated trombone in original case just in time for band season, a lovely lighted display case and a corner china cabinet, as well as two small curio/china cabinets from the 1930's, a sewing machine in an ornate cabinet, Thomas Kinkade village houses and church.

Photos to give you a glimpse are posted. More to come.

Many things from Part I will be 50% to 75% off from the moment the doors open on Friday. Clocks from Part I will be at least 25% off and some will be reduced 50%, as will other items. The "new" oldies will be reduced Saturday.
