Mid century Bar Stools for Sale

We have for sale a set of swiveling hair pin leg mid century bar stools. These were originally manufactured by the Dee Manufacturing Company. They are a matched pair and 30” tall from floor to top of seat. I completely sandblasted the legs and repainted them with a black and silver flake auto paint. When they hit the light the silver has a nice sparkle! New feet and hardware were added. They are ready to go. Pickup in Rockford or shipping can be arranged. $100 OBO for the pair, will not split the pair up.

Fresh in. 1902 Victor Monarch Junior open horn phonograph. I believe this was the first phonograph that the Victor Talking Machine Company produced. Machine works but needs some things. 100% original and will leave work to the new owner. PM for price and details.

Wanted!! Reward / finders fee paid!! I will pay $1000 cash for any information leading to the location of this sign! If you know where it's at come see me!

Paint coming off. Original porcelain coming out! Slowly coming back to life!
