This week we brought in a collection of Eaton’s items including: 2 sizes of folding wooden grocery crates, hat boxes, tins, mason jars, and apothecary bottles. Believe it or not, it has already been 20 years since Eaton’s went bankrupt. We also got in a collection of assorted vintage tins and antique bottles. The tins are becoming more and more collectable, the hipsters keep asking for them. One of the best needlepoint rocking chairs we have ever seen came in this week, a photo is attached. Lots of wall art arrived: paintings including “Autumn in Quebec” by John Beynon, watercolours, prints, and assorted empty frames. An assortment of mahogany furniture turned up including: a fireplace mantle, pair of night stands, chest on chest, dresser with mirror, 2 door server, and a small china cabinet. Some odds and ends new arrivals include: an unusual 6′ tall multi level iron and wood plant stand, primitive kitchen utensils, carpet runner, small modern curio cabinet, 1939 Coca cola silhouette girl thermometer sign, and more. Our favorite item of the week was an angry owl weather vane, a photo is attached. The owl’s expression is priceless, the weather vane is not.
