A bargain, if you're in the market for ceramic pigs.

There is a huge collectors market for pigs. Whenever I put one on Ebay it would sell. Every other owner of a pork store has a collection of them as well as others who just like them. My wife has a psychedelic stuffed pig from the late 60's. it is orange with pink stars on it. I bet I could sell it in a minute.

I love auctions/antique stores! I love old photos & books. This is the best group on the internet. :) I try to get on often, but I've had 2 brain surgeries & a back surgery. The pain is awful so I don't get on as often as I would like. It doesn't take away my love of old stuff.
