    Let's see your mechanical watches

    Grandpa's Trebex I am the keeper of my maternal grandfather's 9kt rose gold 1950's Trebex. Not a terribly valuable watch monetarily but it's dear to me, nonetheless. It still works wonderfully, too. I remember Grandpa wearing it with the 1970's Spiedel metal stretch band shown but I'd like some...

    How about a thread for members to post freebies? I haven't seen a thread of this sort yet though, granted, I'm still really new here. Occasionally, I have stuff I no longer need/want and I'd like to offer it here before I donate it to my local charity. If anyone is interested, post or PM me...

    I've been researching Captain Midnight and it seems he's had a couple of incarnations. In the original radio program which began in 1938, he was a WW1 pilot who, pre-WW2, was sent on secret missions and had interesting adventures. When the comic books came out in 1941, he became a "superhero"...

    Well, for that price they're definitely not staying in MY house!

    Hmmm, it seems decoder rings and badges do pretty well at auction but I can't find any records for S&P shakers. Hopefully, that means "rare", lol!

    These have got to be the ugliest salt and pepper shakers I've ever owned and I've never heard of Captain Midnight and Joyce but I couldn't resist them at the thrift today:

    An extraordinarily well-preserved dress, WWI era. Wow.

    I recently sold this ladies suit from the same mid-teens time period. Not the feminine look of the gorgeous gown in the original post, of course, but perhaps more to the taste of a suffragette. It had some nice details to the stitching and was a gorgeous golden silk jersey.

    Natural/Home remedies for super dry skin?

    For what it's worth, I am the Clinical Supervisor at an allergy/asthma office. My skin has always been on the dry side, though I do not personally have to deal with eczema. For my face: Pond's Cold Cream to remove make-up, wash with Johnson's baby wash, then moisturize with Oil of Olay. It's...

    Have you found Hidden Treasure?

    I'm loving the stories so far, thanks for posting! This find wasn't a valuable treasure but it was interesting, nonetheless. I bought my 1951-built house two years ago. Recently, my 5yo granddaughter was over playing outside and found this embedded in the driveway up near the detached garage...

    Have you found Hidden Treasure?

    I can't be the only one! What have you purchased that came with a hidden treasure? I've found old coins deep in pockets and gorgeous vintage brooches pinned on lapels of coats but I think one of my most exciting surprises was a WW2 Wrigley's Gum poster by collected poster artist Otis Shepard...
