Saturday's finds.

I hit some sales Saturday morning and this is what I came home with,10k necklace with heart pendant $10.00(I thought it said 14K).2 Sterling rings and a broach,$1.00 for all 3 pieces, 1 set of weighted Sterling salt and pepper shakers and 1 set of Black Americana salt and pepper shakers $1.00 for each set. A magneto crank phone,brand name Kellogg Switchboard supply company. It looks like someone tried to restore it but did a poor job, $5.00. and the Handy Andy Tool Set tin box (empty) $1.00 I have not researched any of this stuff yet but I think I did alright,The prices were right! Thanks for looking & Good Luck!...........Scott.

Great stuff! If you like adventure, I suggest holding the contacts of the winding generator and giving the handle a spin. Lots of fun!

I like the salt and peppers. I can't tell but it looks like they still retain most of the paint? Do not put them in a dishwasher and be careful cleaning them or you will remove the "cold paint". It is applied after the firing and it will wash off. They look to be mid century Japan made. Are they redware? Ilike that old phone too!

I've done that lol, had a friend that used it for fishing, he would drape the wires off his dock and crank it for a few seconds, fish would float up to the top, stunned. He would scoop them up with a net before they got unstunned.
