Collections 🧐🫣

[The Nickel Guy]

William, I think we have the same kind of stuff and some are almost in the same kind of places. It is uncanny the similarities in what we collected, especially in the glass enclosed curio up top.

I have Baker S&P, heavy spiral art glass like that tall bottle, hunningbirds, dolphins, and fish bottles. That black Akro lidded jar, I have in green. LOL. And that ain't all.

Net floats from the ocean?.

Cool stuff though.

[Chad G.]

These Japanese fishing net floats were all over the beach when I was a kid, now !! Nothin, the glass on these is extremely thick. When I was a kid we found these triple this size, allot of fish musta got away or been tangled in the net ??

I have one of those and have always wondered how they didn’t break when they’re pulling in the nets and they’re banging against the side of the boat🔥

I have a few thousand more books than I know what to do with.  

WoW Steph, that's a lot of books, have you read most of them? I see you have some old ones, here is an old book I purchased from an Op-Shop here in Melbourne Australia many years ago, a students book on forensic medicine with many hand written notes that I can hardly understand due to not being able to decipher their hand writing, I also have a few book collections, but not too many.

That's pretty cool, especially with the bonus of those hand written notes...a true time capsule with a cover

Yes indeed it is like a time capsule, there are many pages with the students hand writing within.
