Tom, those clocks are the best! Beautiful!
Not really surprising. Small towns and rural areas are really the places to find stuff anymore. I get the sense that many of the dealers out here find most of their stuff on buying trips back east. Where I am even the so-called "estate sales" are a real joke.

It's amazing that you're thrift-shopping in a smaller community and come up with these terrific finds, Tom. Those clocks are great!
Congratulate me, gentlemen.
Today I purchased my PANAMA HAT!
It's a beautiful white, black-banded Montecristi, Ecuadorian-made Panama. Brand-new. Size 58.
I paid $35 for it.
Have I done well?
Oh very well, Michael.
Here:
I know it's nothing fancy, but I couldn't afford to be super-picky. I knew if I didn't snatch this, I'd probably never own one.
Looks great to me! I'd like to find one as it's starting to warm up around here. Isn't it starting to snow down there Shangas?
You don't see these 'cut-corner' Stromberg-Carlsons too often!
I was excited to find this beige 1961 WE 500 with extra long handset cord. I really like the soft-center dial and the alphanumeric phone number on it, as well. I put the silver handset cover on it, had one laying around and looks good in the display case like that.
You've got a good eye, I would have never noticed the cut corners.
Your beige one? That was the phone we had when our number was CE3-3042W
