We’ve been busy sorting through the tens of thousands of antique and vintage photographs we have amassed over the years.

antique and vintage photos

Since we are collectors first, we’re pulling a number of them out for our own collections (and trying to organize them). But we just cannot continue to save (hoard) them all — not properly, anyway. That’s a lot of space and archival materials! So the rest we are going to part with.

Some we will placing up for sale in our Etsy shop. (We also have some sets of photos available in our “crafty” Etsy shop partnership for use in collages and other altered arts.) And we are making some of these old images available as products in the Zazzle shop we share with some artsy folks.

The sorting, scanning, pricing, organizing, etc. is no simple task. We’ve been doing this for days already and have barely made a dent! In other words, watch this space — and the other spaces we linked to, to see the results as they come in. And if you’re looking for something special, don’t hesitate to ask us!

More photos of great things we just brought in for sale at Exit 55 Antiques in Fergus Falls, MN, that I just love. The feature of this little set-up is the antique child’s chair. Details on the chair can be found here. Other special pieces include the antique doily holder, a ceramic black poodle bank, a smokey-colored glass decanter, a floral tin, catalog or salesman’s cards for Italian lamps, and those theatre pieces from a production of The Nerd. As always, if interested in anything shown here you can contact us here; call me, Deanna, directly at (701) 306-6145; or call the shop directly at (218) 998-3088. And keep an eye on our Facebook page for more photos of our antiques and collectibles.

Sometimes, decorating a booth space at an antique mall is much fun as decorating your house. The only sad thing is seeing how cool the set-up looks and wishing you could take it all back home with you and re-do the house. Unfortunately, hubby won’t let me do that. But if you love chippy-paint antique tables, antique wood, and a primitive look, then you’ll understand how I feel about this:

love wood antlers

I love the look of the antlers by the insides of an antique piano. Even more amazing, the old newspaper adhered to the top of the old one-drawer wooden farm house table has the word “pianos” front and center!

Here’s a couple of photos I promised you of the new case we moved into at Antiques On Second in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. We are sharing the case with my folks, No Egrets Antiques. If you want to see more of the primitive antiques and vintage collectibles, look for case number 95, located on the third floor. Just step off the elevator, turn to your right, and you’ll see it just across from the wrap desk with the helpful staff. (Today, Bethany was working up there — turns out, she’s originally from North Dakota! What a hoot!) More photos will be shared on our Facebook page. Right now, I’m off to do some more antiquing in Wisconsin before I leave for Fargo tomorrow morning. *wink*

Can an antique book be called a history book? It can when the book covered 30 years of history before its printing!

This lovely hardcover copy of Football at Minnesota: The story of thirty years’ contests on the gridiron (Minnesota Alumni Weekly, November 9, 1914) is in our case at Exit 55 Antiques. It features lovely old local MN advertising too.
