Its been a little bit since we have got our hands on new stuff but our last pick of 2014 sure finishes the year with a bang!
We went to an old hardware stiore in the south side of Chicago and got some really cool pieces. We bought a whole wall of stuff. Lots of great drawer units and advertising cabinets! Also got a dupoint paints light up clock, a master lock advertising light up open sign, some drill bit displays, and bags of general hardware related stuff.
Happy new year, everyone!
Sorry we haven't updated in awhile! We've been all over the place this past week and a half and pickings have been slim. Did a private dig last week and got a bunch of old advertising tins, mostly tobacco. We got two planters peanuts jars, some misc car parts.. did an auction Wednesday and got a cool antique book stand, some old bookbinding tools, 1934 Chevy radiator cap, antique Chinese water pipe, and a few other odds and ends. Today we followed up on a lead and ended up getting these fabulous tire signs! One general tire and a nice embossed cooper tires. They were a little tricky to get off the building but so worth it!
We've also been super busy beefing up our etsy shops for the holiday season. Remember those in the chicagoland area that can pay cash for pickup/local delivery get a discount!
