ESTATE STORIES

one of the better estate liquidators, if a little pricey.gotta take your bargains where you can get them. i got an old lingerie 'hanger' with an old brand ad on it for 50ยข and sold it for 3.99. so she does have them. and the heater i paid $6 for is in the tiled bathroom. and one of my nicest. probably from the 20's.how many do i have now? 20?

well, an old mini ranch, ick poo. but did findsome stuff. a heater(yup), 30's/40's? with a fan-onlt for looks. but does work. oops. i blew their fuse.
also got an old odd desk lamp. ya, i collect those too.
a little old book with a funny title. AS A MAN THINKETH.
another level. BUT BUT BUT this one has a hardware so it should sell on ebay right? right?
an old porcelain stamp wetter(what are they called?). an old socket. matches the ones in our 1926 house. IN wrapper. dare i keep the heater? i could always part with one of the arvins.

not a bad haul.

i am disappointed the set of 10 art nouveou books didn't get more than 9.99. they are so neat. and high quality. bet they cost a lot. even an antiquitarian book site didn't even have anything.
hmm. i think i have broken even on Jack frost's sale. i sold another book, these and what else did i sell.
of course there are so many books from that one.

OH, speaking of those books. in the 1891 EB,i am reading the history of abysinnia. what abysinnia? where is that? does seem that it may have included much of ethiopia.
so i checked my old Globe(30's? given to me by my childhood elderly neighbor Mrs. Radke.) no abysinnia, but not very current at all. except south africa and egypt. no sudan! or congo.
