I rarely use the word "perfect" with any form of stoneware or art pottery, but this Roseville "Freesia" pattern ewer is just that. Perfect! Not a flake, scratch, stain or bump. No chips, no cracks. Looks like it just came out of the kiln. Available.

I must admit I'm somewhat surprised no one locally expressed any interest in my Geisinger Hospital/medical sterling silver charm bracelet. The sole comment it garnered was from a Lisa Jordan. (Lisa appears to actually be a bot or Ai. "She" expresses interest on dozens of offerings.)

Would any of my followers like to purchase this sterling silver charm bracelet before it's offered to general humanity? Medically doctor/nurse themed with presumably uncommon Geisinger Hospital facade charm. Medical bag, scepter with crown, and a detailed trumpet charm included. All parts marked or test sterling silver.

Sometimes I have that "better-than-average" antique. Case in point: L. C. Tiffany Furnaces bronze charger with inlaid Favrile glass jewels. A shade over 7" in diameter, this handsome piece is in very fine condition with all cabachons intact. (I lightly cleaned/polished the interior. It appeared someone once used it as an ashtray.) Do I offer it at Rollermills, Benton Antiques or resort to eBay? Any interest here? Message me.

They haven't been delivered yet, but I bought a nice lot of four early PA fireplace spatulas at auction. I'm thinking I'll divide them up. Two gracing my wall at Rollermills, the other pair hanging around Benton Antiques Etc.

I've always appreciated early needlework samplers. This small one is probably c. 1850-1880. Very colorful with a darker background. No graphics, just the alphabet and numbers except for the two lower lines. I initially thought they were incomplete or nonsensical, until I figured them out. What do you see? 👀 Available.

SAFETY FIRST! My current cover photo is an intriguing cabinet/shelf unit, apparently designed to contain first aid supplies. Reminds me of something you'd see on an old-time factory floor or affixed to a life guard stand at Wildwood Beach back-in-the-day. From a local estate kitchen, where it hung on the wall holding spices and such. 36" wide and about 12" high. Love the crude lettering and forest green paint. Available.

Shouldn't this "one-in-wins" Jerry Rice game board be on the midway at our upcoming Bloomsburg Fair? Along with Tom Waddle of the Chicago Bears? Air-brushed and artist-signed on plywood, neither shows any sign of use. Dated 1994. Available.
