one of my fav sales. EVERYTHING FOR sale, sad. GORGEOUS, but 70's era updated house. going to be torn down for new shit. goldie(i got a photo album from that sale) i assume, was a WWII VOLUNTEER in japan post war. in the attic i found a silk escape map(ebayed, not given to my brother, the WWII nut, for $60 plus) + a plastic packet of mimeographed rules + regs for how to volunteer RIGHT. BOY SCOUTS. PREPERATION. you just know rummy + the other bushevics were not! anyways, i got 2 of 3 bags(I SHOULD HAVE GOT ALL THREE!!!!) mixed things she brought back from japan. i ebayed a few, but kept many. i have no idea if this is jade. not well carved, but, well, i like it.
i am pretty sure that is where i got that hotel terminus tag.
ANTIQUE PAPER MACHE hand painted INLAID stationary folio- $31
nce part of a dramatic album, scrapbook or stationery folio, these six pieces are all that remain. It’s surprising that although the bindings or hinges or sides faded into the past tense, the artwork on the faux leather grained boards remains sizzling bright. They are no longer what they were, but they remain beautiful works of art.
1482, the stocks and a woman getting her fingers crushed between iron wedges.

SIGNED BRONZE NUDE statue JOYFUL STOUT WOMAN HAPPY & HEAVY- $140
It truly was a great sunshiny day – a terrific day for her to be sitting on my deck, nekked as a Jaybird. I nearly stripped down and joined her. (The reason I didn’t had nothing to do with being shy. Nothing embarrasses me. It had more to do with the fact that, had I sat down out there, I’d have had to wait there until someone came over to help me up.)
