Spy this !, a "Fan Club" pin, some sterling and a friend for another piece.

It was a good morning at a local rummage sale.

A 1957 Minox spy camera for $1



An electric fan tie pin for $0.50



A 1963 1st Soviet Lunar Sputnik Pin for $0.50



About 2 oz of sterling for $2.50



An Arts & Crafts hand wrought Copper Plate signed Dolly Bresnahan Mahar 1941 for $3.00



And my favorite find of the day. A silver on-lay bud vase that is is similar to one that I bought 20 years ago. $1.00 The larger one is the one I found 20 years ago. I believe they are victorian but I am not sure.

Its Weltzar Germany. But for $1 not a bad deal.

The vases are more Art Nouveau than Victorian in style. Any marks on them? Did you mean that they are glass w/silver overlay?

Thanks Diggummup your right on the money,

Both have no markings and I was never able to find anything similar when searching overlay. The reason I mentioned Victorian was I found a listing for a similar bud vase with the 3D flowers on it and said it was Victorian. They do not strike me as Victorian. The one I got today is the second one I've seen in 20 years. When I polished the first one it really showed more detail. I searched Art Nouveau silver on glass overlay. And here is a close match.

I can't help but think Mojjax is going to want that electric fan tie tack. LOL Great finds and at even greater prices. Wish I could find the same sort of deals.

The reason I bought the fan pin was because of all the fan posts on the forum.
