Collector of Antique oddities

I seek out unique items that are historical value and have a story to tell. Fascinated by the origin of items and there usefulness. I have collected these type of items since I was a kid. Some of my finds are unusual. A local artifact, flag holder from Georgia Dental Medical building, this holder that was used in the front of the building. A  Nickel plated 1926 Coleman lantern. A CPR caboose oil lamp from the 1930's. Sunbeam toasters that are fully functional from 1950. Pastry topping applicator from the 1930's. Many tools and other eclectic items. Tools and plates accessories. Sterling Silver items as well, one that stands out from England were weighted .925 Sterling goblets, 7 of them at 225gram each. Some items have sold and some are in my collection. It never  gets dull!! A porcelain Ballerina lamp with stand from Germany. It never gets dull or boring.
