Milk Bottles, Graniteware, Collectibles


Stop in the shop, lots of collectibles and other neat stuff added every week. Please use links or click on images to go to the shop.

Hey, a few more weeks and it's auction time again at Country Joe's Auction.

Went to the market on Sunday setup and sold until about noonish. Lot's of "I give ya" and "Oh, that's to much" people out there. God bless the early morning dealers who actually are there to buy. Probably should only setup for about 2 hours but ya gotta get rid of the other "came with the load stuff". That's where the tire kickers come in, if it's like super cheap they will actually take a few dollars out of their pocket. But only a few, if it's like 10 bucks or more they start to breathe funny and shake. "Oh no, to much money, I give you a dollar" they gasp as they start to wobble away. But after 35-40 years in this business I usually can come up with a good response, they don't always like it but I'm not going to get a lot richer with their dollar. Especially if it's something I paid $5 for and I know it's worth 10 or maybe 20. Oh well so is life at the markets.

Meanwhile I added some milk bottles and other collectibles to the shop.
