Found a factory sealed double-hose coil of Oxygen/Acetylene gas torch hoses for $20

Two "0-2 Cool" brand, AC/Battery powered fans that can be hung from an included chain and hook or placed on a tabletop, and used for home or camping. New in the box, the 10" 5 bladed fan will run on 8 D-size flashlight batteries, or plug into an 120v outlet.
Two speeds. $4 each

A 5-gallon bucket with two 30 amp hookup copper wire harnesses for electric dryers, etc., both: $2

Two "Bessy" bar clamps; one 18" and 30", both for $2

Two 4' long levels, one a Stanley "FatMax" all metal and one a Johnson wooden level, both in their cases, for $2.00 each

At the flea market, I found the Sterling Baby spoon for $1 and an unused 4" diameter cup-shaped masonary grinding wheel for $1.

You have a few nice pices of sterling there. I would think several of them would sell for more than melt value. Are any of them signed pieces?

The sterling stick pin says "Austin College". The only piece that has a stamp is the silver bracelet laying against the red background, with the other one on top. In addition to being stamped Mexico and 925, it has a "T-J-?", with the last letter being either a "U or O".
