A Report On My Good Friend Dale

When I retired from GSO last September 10 little did I know my Good Friend Dale also decided to retire about a month later. You can see Dale's "retirement" blog at http://stoneroads.blogspot.com/ and his "Road Kill" blog at http://roadkillskill.blogspot.com/ Upon retirement I went back into the antique and collectible business again. Obviously my friend Dale is still looking for a new career. Good luck to you, Dale, its a tough jobs market out there. (Just click on the pictures for a larger view).

The Red Bluff Fairground Show

Last Saturday we did a show at the Red Bluff Fairground. It was a combination of Arts, Crafts, Collectibles, and Antiques. It was a beautiful day but a little windy. There was some attendance but not near the crowd we anticipated. We did OK but it was slow going. Here's my little honey in the booth ready to do business.

Selling on eBay

I've been listing a lot of auctions on eBay lately and this is one that I just sold. It is a Certified TRUE COPY of the document from President Abraham Lincoln to the Governor of Nevada proclaiming that the State of Nevada is admitted into the Union on an equal footing with the original states. The original document is dated October 30, 1864 but I don't know the date the TRUE COPY was made. I bought this document along with a lot of old paper about 10 years ago and had in in storage until recently. (Just click on the pictures for a larger view).
