The wife and I went down to Newbury Mass. this weekend to celebrate the birthday of a long time friend . I was given orders not to bring my detector because I was told I would not have time to sneak off and try to make a find or two. I complied and left my detector home . But that did not stop me from making a couple finds . On the way down we stoped to let the dog out and do her thing. I took her the dog in a little gravel pit area to do her business and came back with the O S MORSE, Plaistow N.H. Brick . I collect marked bricks as well as other relics and this is one I did not have . Then today we went to Sunday brunch and parked next to a very old looking house in Newburyport that was for sale and had a big commercial dumpster full of discarded junk from the old house , I pulled out the very old looking pantry cupboard base . I wish the top had been in the dumpster as well but it was not . I am not sure if this old cabinet would be a candidate for refinishing or if it is more desireable with the old crazed paint on it ? What do you think ?? I also salvaged the Vintage enameled metal top table with the green flower design on it . Even though the base of the table was not in the dumpster the enameled metal top is in great shape and it should not be too hard to find or build a base for it . Go price what they get for one of these tables at the antique shops and it will shock you ! Thanks for looking ! MaineRelic
