Antique Questions Forum / Vintage Bottle Values

« on: August 28, 2011, 09:17:18 am »

I have two bottles that I am hoping that someone can help me find values, age etc  on them
the first is a amethyst Lash's Bitters bottle
the second is a Michigan Maid Beverage Bottle
I have not been able to locate any information for the two specific bottles on line.
I have attached photos and both bottles are in very good condition
The bitters has a few flea bites but the Michigan Maid is about perfect.
Thanks
Annie

Antique Questions Forum / Antique Trunk

« on: August 21, 2011, 09:07:44 pm »

I am hoping someone can give me an idea about this trunk. It looks like it was possibly a traveling trunk. There was a type of colorful covering on it that has aged off only remnants remain it reminds me of  wall paper for a lack of better description.
Basically I am hoping someone can give me a run down on my fascination with this truck.
Maybe an origin of where these types of trunks were used or originated from? And possibly a good site for restoration if it seems like it might be worth while to do so?
Is there any value to it?
Is it worth restoring?
The hinges and lock are all very good but the handles are gone.
Thank you
Annie

Antique Questions Forum / Estate Find Political Pins and Vintage Post Cards

« on: December 21, 2009, 12:02:31 pm »

My mother recently passed and in her estate we found 3 books of vintage postcards.
I am looking for a reputable & trusted dealer who might like to purchase the entire collection or/and would be able to give me a fair market price.


Additionally she has a board that she filled with vintage political pins.  I just need someone to point me in the right direction and from there I can provide photos and an itimized list if they are interested.

Thanks
Annie
