A Few Nice Picks From Yesterday

[diggummup]

Got These For $5 Each at an estate sale.

First is a Lladró Butterfly Figurine titled "From Nature's Palette" #6703, perfect condition no box though. Hopefully good for a 50 dollar bill.





This is a Miniature Kraft Cheese Headquarters Building by the AC Rehberger co. dated 1938. It's silver plated over zinc, so a lot of the plating has been absorbed by the zinc already. Nice patina though. Last one sold for $49.99





Next is this 1957 Chevrolet 100 Car Club - 200 Car Chapter Salesmen's Trophy Award, shows some age wear. Some dummy has one listed for $250.00. I'll start mine at $49.99 and be happy to get it.





Honorable mention lol-
I found this Gianni Versace Collezione Uomo Autonno Inverno 1994-95 Catalog on Friday. Paid .50 for it, last one sold for $50.00.

Interesting catalog. I can't even pronounce those words but the cover is interesting!

Nice buys. Yea, the one below (1957 Chevrolet 100 Car Club) your listing for $250 looks strange. Thanks for sharing...

It basically says "Men's Fall and Winter Collection" in Italian.

It just looks like the lighting is different and the aging is not as harsh on theirs. The Florida humidity could have affected mine differently. I thought about cleaning it up some but then I decided against it.

I learned about catalogs after not buying a huge stack of old Sotheby's catalogs once a few years ago. Still kicking myself thinking about it. I do have Jackie Kennedy's somewhere though.

I buy all the old Sotheby's catalogs I can find. We have a used bookstore that usually sells old magazines and they throw them in there for $1.00 apiece.
