Glenn, In that cool blue box drawer, is that a thimble? That is a very interesting spool holder with pinchusion and secret cubbyhole. I like that one a lot!

Glenn 11-06-2011 03:50 PM

It is a sterling silver thimble from grandma

I like that cigar box too! Was that from when you lived in Germany?

I want that last cigar box Glenn!! LOL Not for me, I have a friend whose last name is Rapier!

When station in Germany, the Germans would put there discarded items on the street for the city pick up to land fill. So once a month my wife and I would hit the streets collecting antiques, cigar boxes or what ever was interesting. Needless to say we brought back 13,000 pounds of antiques back with us. We aquired complete sets of china(Rosenthal and Miesen). We had a great time picking these things up off the street that people pay lots of money for.
