I haven't been on this thread in quite some time, due to the fact I stopped buying things. Recently, after 41yrs, (long story of family dynamics when parents die) these came back into my possession. The train I had 57yrs ago....... haven't thought about for at least 50yrs...I know either the Engine or the coal car blows smoke....

Then a "Coffee Pot" lamp....This was my Grandmothers coffee pot (born in 1883, she passed in 1951) made by my father who passed 41yrs ago.

Pair of salt and pepper shakers from the old Tropics restaurant here in Dayton. A 1965 Pence Drag Strip trophy. Pence was north of Piqua, Ohio and is a gravel pit today. A really cool unidentified carnival ride car. Last but not least and my favorite.......a new 5 Gallon bucket for my youngest grandson.View attachment 987917

Carnival car is way kool!
 
Bought another tin boat.. couldn't pass it up for $425.00 not sure of the make but it looks a lot like a Aero Craft CC "CC" stands for convertible cruiser . its 16' long 6' wide and 37" deep.. its a solid very well built boat from the 50s has unusual port hole windows and a awesome bow hatch !! I added a photo of one very similar in the water to show the size better.. this will be my second in line for a restore.. just a good clean up before storage.. then a paint strip inside and out and see what else is needed before a polish ..
