At the Auctions

The auction I worked at today had lots of interesting

things to look at!  That first photo is of an antique cast iron

butter tester that won a prize at the World's Fair!

I loved the old time fire truck pulled by horses.

Kind of looks like the Budweiser team, doesn't it?

That coffee grinder was fun, and that orange pottery

was highly collectible.

It's hard to see, but that's the back side of a race horse

and jockey.  It was mechanical and the horse bucked the

jockey in the air.  Loved the cast iron horse head door

pull.  Then there's the big butter churn and a hand made

tandem bicycle.

I thought these lightning rods were really cool!

Would have loved to have gotten the train one for the

boys' bedroom, but they went for well over $100.

Seems everything went for a lot of money today!

There were two sets of horns.

My great grandpa had a pair on the wall above his

bed when I was a child.  It's the first thing I'd want to

look at when we would go visit!

Loved the pink pottery bowls.

The Barbie, clothes and case was fun, too!

Several lanterns with amber glass, another butter churn

and pretty pottery were fun to watch being bid upon.

No trash today!

All in all a pleasant auction.

I even got home early!

So, what did you do today?
