To all members of I antique on Line - this is a great place, but what even makes it greater is being able to "see" you --- and by seeing you, this does not mean your actually self but an identity or pseudo image if you will, that could be anything you want to be (within reason). I have many different Avatars - or images - but here I like using a photo of my brick and mortar store. I also like using my puppies - one such photo is of my Yorkie Zoie with her five puppies beneath her, and one pup in particular named Mackie who at the same time I snapped the picture, rolled on his back. This is definitely a Kodak moment. However; you do not have to be camera proficient and can even choose clip art or anything free from the Internet.

We want you to have an enjoyable time here, and to stay a while. which means we would like to "see you" !!!!

Nice Country!

And your right, it's mostly the winter bills that make it a drag.

Seems when winter arrives, all utilities go up another 25 percent.

 

Anyhow, if you ever want to break the ice with a trade from here, let me know. I'm always manning this site.

Best and Enjoy Ralph

as you know, from day to day, one just never knows what one shall find. I'll definately keep you in mind.

Anything else "smaller" that you may need? for you or a customer?

A PLEASURE to Meet you Ralph from way up north in Pa.

Beautiful Country I must say!

 

I use to set up in Adamstown, Kutstown and Perky on Monday.

It was always a nice excursion. I once lived in the Catskills of NY.  - Had enough of cold, snow, blah blah, and the high heating costs etc etc......

Till our next...

Hi Dennis,

Names Ralph. I am from way up north in Pa..

 

 I don't think I have ever seen a crock from Fl. up this way.

 

 Counter, any length up to about 16 feet. Prefer oak, or walnut, or cherry. Style, from 1900 back. Nice quarter sawn oak Victorian, would be nice. Lol.They are hard to find up here.

Folk art I like. Smaller things though. Old painted label soda pop bottles, Wood? Depends, cause I'm a Wood-a-haul-ic... Tons of wood around here. Any Florida crocks or old Florida items?
Photographs I also like. Easy to mail too.

As for your counter, how long, what style?  wainscote period? victorian? or?

I have a couple of old oak candy store counter top display cases in Need, but have most of what they need. CHEAP.

btw, where r u?
I'm in Fla.

Name is Dennis

Yours?
