13" diameter. This old antique nautical theme chair pad was most likely made in the early 1900s. The edges are fraying as you can see, and we are selling it "as found". The edge desparately needs binding. Pictured here are the view of top and bottom.
S&H $4 in the US
This was Dad's fishing tackle box - for salt water fishing. Mostly used in the 1950s &60s - last used in 1973. But the damp cellar had definitely caused rust and deterioration. We're selling this as a box lot. you're buying 'as is '.

We bought this bell when we lived in Groton CT, near the sub base in the 1970s. It reportedly came off a diesel sub, although I can't verify that. It is iron, with a very nice clear tone. The bell is 8" in diameter and it is approx. 5 1/4" deep. The following information is imprinted on the top (2nd picture):
"Bendix Aviation Corp. BKLYN NY"
"OR NO CAL5673-S ALT Date INSP"
"115 V.A.C. 60 CYC 346 Amps - Type B-4 Contr"
Estimated s&h weight - 8 lbs.

Help! Shirley Temple - Type doll 1950's In as found condition.
This frame is made from 1/2" wide pine boards. It is 28" long, 15 1/2" wide, and 13 3/4" high. The back was cracked a long time ago, and was repaired with the 2 iron bars you see pictured. I would assume the 2 small pieces of wood that are visible at the back of this were the arms that held the handles. If this is the case, someone cut it a long while ago, because where it was cut has darkened with age. Also as you will note, there is no bottom.
This must have been a very sweet sled in its day. Even if left as is, it would make a great display for dolls or other small friends.
Estimated s&h weight - 8lbs.
Estimated shipping weight - 5 lbs.

This is a beautiful 2 sided relief carving. It's viewable from both sides, although there is less detail on the carved back side. As you can see there are pieces missing off the top and a few spaces in the middle as well. There are also 3 or 4 cracks that should be relatively easy to reglue. The carving on the flowers is a beautiful example of low relief carving and incorporates the feeling of real movement in the petals.
Dimensions: 18" high by 36" wide. A nice addition to any wall.
I have saved this for a long time, hoping I'd find time to do some minor restoration
and then display it. It looks so nice, even incomplete. But now I'm pretty sure
I won't find that time. There is a slight reveal inside the frame that could
accept a piece of glass (or plexi) on either side if you wanted to display it
with both sides showing.
Estimated shipping weight 10lbs.

We have owned this quilt for over 20 years, but have never attempted the project of cleaning and repairing it. There are some pink stains in a few of the squares and it's in desperate need of cleaning. Some repatching is also necessary, since some of the patches (mostly on the back side) are worn and hanging loose. Also, some of the fabrics didn't hold up to the years, and may also need patching in.
Dimensions: Approximately 65" by 75"
Estimated shipping weight 6 lbs.
This Fischer and Porter controller and Flow measurement device was used in paper
manufacturing. It came out of a defunct paper mill in Holyoke MA, in the 1980s.
(probably Valley Paper) There is still some bits of paper mash inside the case.
The fittings on the bottom left and right indicate they were for controller air
supply and air output. There are also 2 other fittings in the middle. The drum
in the middle says "1 day" - presumably how often the round chart paper would
have needed replacement. The guides on the face indicate that it measures, "
cc/min. liquid sp. gr. 1.0". I would guess that it opened and closed valves
as well as charting the day's performance.
