Here we go with yet another round of Fabulous Finds For Under Five dollars.

Phabulous Phone Phor Under Phive.
(clever huh?)
It works too.
No one has called me yet so
I haven't been able to answer it.
Someone please call me.....
And behind the phone is
the lovely Vera-like plate from Mikasa.
It does not say Vera, but in my mind, it's a Vera.

Beautiful in Blue.
Hand painted vase that I know nothing about.
It's probably worth thousands.
I'll call Sotheby's
in the morning to set up an auction time.
Get your checkbooks ready.
You won't want to miss this.

Lovely little dresser. Another free item that came with the credenza.
(The gift that just keeps on giving.)
Still waiting on the rest of the Dux pieces.
The sale of the place fell through because the buyer had a prior engagement he forgot about.
Jail time. Yes you read that right.
The man is going to jail.
Bummer.
The place is back on the market.
With the beautiful Dux furniture inside.
It's killing me people!

Can't remember if I posted this already.
Salvation Army find.
I love the lines.

1961 Triumph.
Just kidding.
We had a car like this back in the day.
My sister and I would ride in the front seat under the dust cover.
We thought that was really fun.
Sitting in the dark.
Unable to see where we were going.
Great fun.
Guess we were a little strange.
Come to think of it,
I still have days where I feel like I'm sitting in the dark
unable to see where I'm going....
then I take my medicine and everything is alright.
I'm getting silly. Better go to bed.
Good Night Blog Buddies.
The blue decorated vase is Japanese Satsuma, c.1920's and probably worth $50-$125, depending on the size.
