  1. Thank you newfld! I always like your comments.
  2. I have overlooked a worn tag on shawl, please see updated description and picture of tag. Still a mystery!!
  3. The message from the Ukraine seller kostik151 12:31 good day. Thank you for writing. I would be happy to help you. But I know about him as well as you. I bought it in a store not for new clothes. ...
  4. Keramikos, it is the exact same duplicate. Thank you. I'm just going to try to find out where they got the shawl and go from there. But any more information from anyone else is appreciated. Thank you!
  5. Dav2no1 hey thanks for finding the link it describes the image - this handkerchief is a picture of the royal hunt of the British Duchess of Devonshire. Beauty, nobility and natural charisma brought th...
  6. It's not quite the same scene. The one on the link is a handkerchief. This is a shawl. Need more information. Not sure it's Ukrainian?
  7. It looks like Unakite, but the stones are speckled. Anyone know about Unakite? Thanks.
  8. is it an "opera" watch, kimmer??
  9. You are right. I just would really like to get rid of these things. I was hoping I could date them. I dont know what to do with them now. Maybe give them out as presents.
  10. The other that i found with this one was an Elgin 1904 I listed it on Ebay recently, I am glad I didn't list this one!!! :)
  11. So we can safely say that these were pre 1950 repurposed art?
  12. The Illinois Watch Case Co. started in Chicago in 1886 and, within a few years, moved to Elgin, IL. It continued making cases until the 1940s. The second case is marked Philadelphia Watch Case Co wi...
  13. Cute story. But this isn't a modern "steampunk" piece. I am trying to date the era in which it was made by the dolls clothing and attire. I would say in the 30s or so. . . could be similar to or ...
  14. Yes, the box is what makes it. It must be the original box because it fits the pocket watch perfectly. It also has a little built in display stand so you can sit the watch upright in its protective ...
  15. so it is one of the earlier ones before they patened in 1914, does it make it more valuable?
  16. Thank you for all your help, I am going to try to find out if there is anything else out there about this particular one. :) I am not sure if I will sell it or not, I am going to watch those auctions...
  17. i added it: here is the thread: http://mb.nawcc.org/showthread.php?p=552573#post552573

  19. Thank you! I got it open and to my suprise the inside was moving! So i took pictures and a short video of it you can see on my youtube page: www.youtube.com/steffifitz
  20. So is it dangerous to have this fire extinguisher in the house or yard on display?
  21. Oh yeah, some people say it is a copper or brass blowtorch.. I think it is brass. I like to collect fire extinguishers, and typically the brass fire extinguishers were introduced early 1900s, your blo...
  22. I like your description! the label is in very bad condition. I have seen some of these up for auction on ebay for around $10.00 and good condition. There is another one out there with the label tha...
