There are great illustrated step-by-step instructions for reloading 10 gauge shotgun shells. The tools are lightly used, good for much more reloading.
WWII British Army No. 4 MK II 5 BAYONET, SCABBARD, FROG - eBay (item 310055027158 end time Jun-03-08 18:38:05 PDT)This WWII British Army bayonet is marked, "No. 4 MK II, 5" on one side a7789" on the other side. I see no maker's mark on the scabbard. I can't read what's stamped on the back of the frog except it starts out with a "2".
An eBay seller sold a bayonet like this and said it was for an Enfield rifle. Another seller said it was for probing mines which explains the somewhat screwdriver shaping on the tip.
Vintage GOP Elephant CAMPAIGN COOKIE CUTTER, Orig Box! - eBay (item 310055026237 end time Jun-05-08 18:34:23 PDT)This vintage tin cookie cutter is shaped like the GOP elephant and comes in the original box marked, "Campaign Cookie Cutter. Vote Republican. GOP." It makes 2 by 3 inch cookies.
Besides the vintage red, white and blue patriotic box, there's also the insert with ordering instructions. They offered 72 cutters at ten cents each at an address with no zip code. Another eBayer sold one recently and said this cookie cutter was produced during the Roosevelt Presidential campaign in the 1940's.
Antique Coal Furnace Tool PENINSULAR SHAKER Fire Tender - eBay (item 310055024509 end time Jun-03-08 18:28:56 PDT)This vintage tool is a Peninsular furnace shaker used to tend the coal fire. From time to time the fire needed shaken down or more coal added or ashes removed to keep the home fire burning. Lots of fun. The shaker is marked, "Peninsular, 2."
One shaped end fits over a furnace piece to do the work. The handle end looks somewhat like a fat screwdriver. I'm guessing this furnace shaker is made of steel.
Vintage Pocket-Sz SUN HEMMI SLIDE RULE w/ Leather Case! - eBay (item 310054330088 end time Jun-01-08 18:15:42 PDT)This vintage Hemmi slide rule and leather slipcase are small, about 6 1/2 inches long. The rule is marked, "Sun, Hemmi, Japan, No. 149A."
A slide rule is the earliest pocket computer. The center slides back and forth as needed for computing. The window slider helps you cross reference the numbers and settings.
The lines of numbers are marked, "L, K, A, CF, CIF, C I, C, D, LL0 and LL/0" on one side. The other side has "LL/1, LL/2, LL/3, DF, B, T I, S I, C, D, LL3, LL2 and LL1."
Vintage 1903 Glassport SPOON REST Indian Chief Design! - eBay (item 310054329052 end time Jun-01-08 18:11:46 PDT)This clear glass spoon rest features the head of an Indian chief complete with headdress, two tomahawks, peace pipe and necklace. Embossed letters say, "1903 Buy Glassport Lots."
It's incredibly detailed. I took far too many pictures out of fear you couldn't see the see-through thing. Besides the great chief, there's an Indian design around the inner rim, another on top of the rim and dots underneath the edge.
Vintage Stoneware CROCK PIE PAN Cook-Rite Cookin-Ware! - eBay (item 310053813742 end time May-30-08 19:34:22 PDT)This old crock pie pan is glazed inside, unglazed outside. The bottom is embossed, "Cook-Rite Cookin-Ware, Economy, Health. Reg. U.S. Pat. Off., Pat 91285."
I never heard of a pie pan made like a crock. Stoneware is supposed to cook evenly, so maybe it's harder to burn your pie? Someone loved this one and used enough to begin wearing off the glaze.
It's a beautiful brown inside like a bean pot. Outside is rather orange-tone clay embossed with easy-to-see lines and hard-to-see leaves.
WWII British Army No. 4 MK II BAYONET, SCABBARD, FROG! - eBay (item 310053078800 end time May-27-08 19:29:28 PDT)This WWII British Army bayonet is marked, "No. 4 MK II" on one side with LB monogram for the Long Branch manufacturer in Ontario. The other side is marked with what might be an N, up-pointing arrow, and what might be a 7 or Z--or NTZ? Or NT7? It's also embossed "75" two places and also lightly etched as if someone wrote 75 and it left a mark.
The metal scabbard is marked, "No. 4 MK 1" on the opening end. I see no markings on the heavy canvas frog either because there aren't any or they're covered with filth.
I'm not sure how the bayonet and scabbard fit into the frog. Another eBay seller had a bayonet like this and said it was for an Enfield rifle. Another seller said it was for probing mines which explains to somewhat screwdriver shaping on the tip.

Silver Surfer #4 1969 CGC 6.5 Low Distribution Buscema! - eBay (item 310052808647 end time May-26-08 20:35:55 PDT)This vintage Marvel comic is Silver Surfer #4 which was published in February, 1969. It had low distribution, but my man bought one and has kept it ever since. CGC has rated it at 6.5 with an insurance value of $700. CGC comments, "Restoration includes very small amount of color touch on cover. Off-white pages."
Because Joe was the only owner, CGC granted it Pedigree status. We'll include the CGC paperwork and Joe's application letter with the slabbed comic. This is a beautiful comic. Examine the pictures carefully. The only flaws are foxing on the back cover and very minor stress lines.
In this issue The Skyrider of the Spaceways encounters Thor. Hulk, Thing and Hercules cameos. Tales of the Watcher backup story. Stan Lee story, John Buscema cover. John Buscema, Howard Purcell, Sal Buscema and Paul Reinman art.

Vintage Brooks Black Leather MOTORCYCLE JACKET Mens 46! - eBay (item 310052539328 end time May-25-08 20:39:53 PDT)This vintage black leather Brooks motorcycle jacket is men's size 46 with a zip-out plush lining. The Brooks label appears on the plush liner and the coat lining.
I think it once belonged to a Harley-Davidson fan because I see the imprint and holes on the left chest where a Harley pin used to live. The right elbow and waist have heat damage where the leather got too close to something too hot and shrunk. There are still lots of miles left on this black leather motorcycle jacket.

I know one is a powder measure, two could be crucibles, and I'm sure you know what the others are.
The one that looks like a shotgun shell is marked, "12 Ga. Made in U.S.A." The powder measure is marked Shot Oz. from 1/8 to 2 1/4, Powder Drams from 2 1/2 to 5. The other tools have no markings.

The likeness of ET The Extraterrestrial is quite good, but there's no mention of Steven Spielberg, no money paid to him for the rights to produce this figure. It's still new in package, in a bubble on the original card.
Vintage Adjustable Steel ICE TONGS Tote Icebox Blocks! - eBay (item 310051609871 end time May-22-08 17:31:31 PDT)This vintage ice tongs was for toting smaller blocks of ice back when people had ice boxes instead of electric refrigerators. It looks adjustable with a lever on one side and a turning lock like a window latch on the other side. There's a spring to help keep the grippers tight on the block.
It looks like it was a silvery metal before the patina developed, maybe steel. I see no maker's mark.
Realistic Sound FLUSHING TOILET BANK Still Piggy Coin! - eBay (item 310050818798 end time May-19-08 19:44:59 PDT)This plastic flushing toilet is a still bank with realistic sound effects when you push the handle. The bottom is embossed, "Fun-Damental Too Ltd., Huntingdon Valley, PA 19006 'The Toilet Bank'™ Patent Pending ©1994 Manufactured in China."
It sounds very real. See for yourself on the auction page where there's a video.
The seat lifts. The blue "water" is a panel that moves to accept coins when you push it. Yes, your money goes down the toilet. Don't worry, you can retrieve it by opening a plug in the bottom.
Get a kid started with the saving habit with this flushing toilet bank.

Vintage Winking WESTERN BARBIE Doll Used in Box #1757! - eBay (item 310049906409 end time May-18-08 17:55:08 PDT)This vintage winking Western Barbie comes with her original box, booklet and some cards. The box says, "She gives you her autograph and a wink." This doll must have winked once too often and is stuck in a permanent wink now. Mattel No. 1757.
The box says there's a comb, brush, perfume bottle, mirror and instructions. The instruction booklet is here, but not the rest. There's no stamper as pictured. Her boots are missing, too.
She's in good condition except for her eyes. Her western outfit is in good condition. The box is somewhat banged up and has been taped at the upper front. A handwritten tag stapled to the top says, "1966" as if they thought that's when this winking Western Barbie doll came out?
Vintage HANDWOVEN HANDBAG Overshot Design Purse, Frame! - eBay (item 310049905724 end time May-16-08 17:51:46 PDT)This vintage cream and black handbag features an old-fashioned handwoven overshot design popular in coverlets in the 1800s. It was likely woven on a narrow four-harness loom. There's no maker's mark.
The metal frame is expertly installed as is the lining which has a surprise touch in the floral braid trim inside the frame edge. The cream threads in the weave have the sheen of rayon. The purse is lined with cream lining fabric.
The engraved metal frame and chain handle have lost most of their silvery finish through age and use. The fabric shows wear near the frame. The purse is definitely black and cream, not navy and cream like the photos suggest. The cream is lighter in real life, more off-white on this vintage handwoven coverlet-design purse.
Vintage Victorian Courting Couple SCOURING PAD HOLDER! - eBay (item 310049651936 end time May-15-08 20:14:49 PDT)This vintage ceramic Victorian couple decorate a scouring pad holder. The bottom is both embossed and stamped, "Made in Japan."
The back has an opening for the pad and the bottom has an opening to allow it to drain. The pad hides out of sight behind the courting couple.
Is it just me or does she look a bit alarmed at the lute playing? Actually they're both looking at something else, almost like they've been discovered courting.
Vintage White and Gold BEADED WRIST BAG Zipper, Mirror! - eBay (item 310049108357 end time May-15-08 17:17:09 PDT)
This small white and gold beaded bag can be worn on your wrist, because it has a belt on the back (seen in first and last pictures). It closes with a metal zipper with an art deco tab and a patent number. The design on the tab might be an "M" but I'm not sure. Otherwise there's no maker's mark.
Inside is satin lining with a pocket holding a double mirror that's showing its age. Three of the eight big beads are missing. A few of the seed beads are missing and some are stained.
Vintage STANLEY MAGNETIC CLEANER Clothes Brush, Sleeve! - eBay (item 310049635870 end time May-15-08 18:40:25 PDT)This vintage Stanley Magnetic Cleaner comes in the original pasteboard sleeve. The cleaner works by static electricity, I think. Men who worked in powdered metal plants used these cleaners to dust powdered metal off their work clothes before heading home.
The cleaner back says, "Magnetic Cleaner. Stanley Quality +, Westfield, Mass. Patent Pending, Made in U.S.A." A patent number is impressed in the side.
The working surface is five wavy half-inch deep plastic ridges. I just rubbed the cleaner vigorously on the sleeve of my supposedly-clean light gray hoodie I'm wearing and was shocked to see the ridges coated with light gray dust.
The pasteboard sleeve has marvelous vintage graphics. The sleeve is in pretty poor condition with much wear and a big piece missing off one side. It says, "Cleans all kinds of fabrics safely. Cleans quickly by an entirely new principle. Quality Plus Stanley, Westfield, Mass. A Guaranteed Product."
The sleeve back lists the uses:- For Furniture
- For Rugs
- For Automobile Upholstery
- Easy to Clean
There's supposed to be a bristle brush to clean the Cleaner, but that's not here. "Use soft, damp cloth or chamois if more thorough cleaning is desired." One side says:
Our Policy
Stanley + products are made from quality materials under clean, sanitary and wholesome conditions by happy and contented people. Each article is guaranteed to give entire satisfaction.
Signed, F. Stanley Beveridge, President
The other side of the sleeve has a quote by Longfellow, but part of it was printed on the piece that's missing.
This vintage Stanley Magnetic Cleaner fabric "brush" works like new.
Vintage WHITMAN'S TIN CANDY BOX Art Deco Graphic Design - eBay (item 310049418332 end time May-14-08 19:43:02 PDT)This vintage one pound Whitman's candy tin features an elegant art deco design with a lady or princess in a mosaic tile background. It's marked, "Whitman's, 1 lb. net, S. F. W. & S., Inc."
The box is sturdy with good hinges. There's quite noticeable patina inside and out and I think the colors have faded or darkened with age.
Store your trinkets in vintage style in this old Whitman's candy tin.
Carved and Inlaid WOODEN INCENSE BURNER Polished Box! - eBay (item 310049409162 end time May-14-08 18:53:07 PDT)This wooden incense burner is quite beautiful with carved filigree designs and inset golden (maybe brass) metal sun, moon and stars in each side.
A hole in the upright tab holds a long incense stick for burning and the trough in the lid catches the ashes. The lid lifts to reveal a storage area for many incense sticks. The box feels smooth to the touch, strong and sturdy, and it closes with a clack.
I see no maker's mark on this polished wood box with incense sticks inside ready to fill your home with exotic scents.
'65 JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #37 Crossover Comic XLNT! - eBay (item 310049131164 end time May-15-08 18:50:13 PDT) This Justice League of America #37 was a Justice Society crossover issue from August, 1965. It has the first Silver Age appearance of Mr. Terrific. Classic Gardner Fox story. We don't know what artist did this issue.
The front cover shows The Green Lantern, Doctor Fate, Mr. Terrific, The Flash, and The Atom battling a living lightning bolt! This is an excellent unread issue and very collectible copy. See details below.
This copy of Justice League #37 has been in our personal collection since the time it appeared on the newsstand 43 years ago.
Vintage White and Gold BEADED WRIST BAG Zipper, Mirror! - eBay (item 310049108357 end time May-15-08 17:17:09 PDT) This small white and gold beaded bag can be worn on your wrist, because it has a belt on the back (seen in first and last pictures). It closes with a metal zipper with an art deco tab and a patent number. The design on the tab might be an "M" but I'm not sure. Otherwise there's no maker's mark.
Inside is satin lining with a pocket holding a double mirror that's showing its age. Three of the eight big beads are missing. A few of the seed beads of this vintage white and gold beaded wrist bag are missing and some are stained.
2 Wooden FISHING KITTIES IN BOAT Colorful Cats, Fish! - eBay (item 310047870952 end time May-11-08 20:20:12 PDT) Do you like fishing kitties? These two cats in a boat have a catch on the tiger-striped cat's pole. The black dotted cat's pole is missing. A label on the back of the boat says, "Made in Indonesia."
The cats and boat are lightweight, so they might be carved out of balsa wood. It's hard to tell under all the colorful paint.
Do these two cats in a fishing boat make you smile?
White Ceramic Cat in Sewing Basket w/ Yarn COOKIE JAR! - eBay (item 310047879972 end time May-11-08 21:19:42 PDT) Do you like cat cookie jars? This white kitten with yellow eyes is lounging in a woven sewing basket amidst a thimble, spool of thread, buttons and a ball of yarn. There's no maker's mark on this ceramic cookie jar.
The cat's head and front legs form the lid. It would be a good jar for smaller cookies as I'm not sure you could get your paws on a big cookie and get it out. The jar mouth is only about 2 1/2 by 3 inches.
The jar part came out of the mold with numerous tiny air bubbles and both parts have numerous minor chips, but this kitty cookie jar is still cute.
Brass Kneeling African Woman BOTTLE OPENER 4.5-Inches! - eBay (item 310047558947 end time May-10-08 17:41:24 PDT) This bottle opener is a kneeling African woman dressed in nothing but a high wire neck decoration, long skirt and upswept hairdo. She's sleek and has an attractive feline face.
She looks like a figurine, small and heavy, black and likely brass, just large enough to nicely fit your hand. There is no maker's mark. The opener of this African woman bottle opener is in the base.
Old Unused TINY CHARLEY PUNCHBOARD Cigarette Jackpot! - eBay (item 310047556343 end time May-10-08 17:25:35 PDT) This unused vintage punchboard says, "Tiny Charley, 66 Winners, Jackpot Pays 1500 Cigarettes, 500 Cigarettes, 100 Cigarettes. 25 cents per punch. Six numbers on each ticket."
The label on the back says, "Tiny Chas, Cigarette, Your Punch is Here. White, Yellow, Blue, Orange, Pink, Green. Op. Serial Size Color 3970 360 (scribbled initials), Made in U.S.A."
I'm unsure exactly how it works. I think it's made of cardboard or compressed paper, but it feels like a board. There are fourteen lines along each side which made me wonder if there are fourteen punchboards. I don't want to dig at it to see if it comes apart.
It was wrapped in a clear plastic bag for decades and had a sticker and black marker handwriting that left darker red on the faded punchboard front. The writing said, "11-15-98 $25.00."
Do you understand how this vintage Tiny Charley Cigarettes Jackpot Punchboard works?
Stringed Hollow Wooden DOOR CHIME Soft Musical Tones! - eBay (item 310047553796 end time May-10-08 17:08:33 PDT) Hang this hollow wooden stringed door chime on a door and it plays tones when the door moves. Three wooden hammers strike eight strings to make soft music when you open and close the door.
There is no maker's mark. It's very well made, varnished and attractive. Colored beads separate the hammers where they are hung at the top. This musical door chime hangs by by a keyhole opening on the back.
Vintage Philip Morris CIGARETTES HUMIDORPAC Tin Can! - eBay (item 310047551231 end time May-10-08 16:52:51 PDT) This vintage metal Philip Morris cigarettes can has an old-fashioned classy look in tobacco brown and gold. The lid says, "Philip Morris Humidorpac, 50 Cigarettes. Keep Lid Closed."
The front says, "Philip Morris & Co. Ltd. Incorporated. Established--Over 90 Years. Special London Selection. English Blend Cigarettes. Manufactured by Philip Morris & Co. Ltd. Inc., New York."
The back says, "Philip Morris & Co. Ltd. Inc. English Blend. These cigarettes are manufactured from a blend of the finest tobaccos obtainable. Guaranteed to be free from any deleterious flavoring. None genuine unless the initials of our firm PM&Co are printed on each cigarette."
One side says, Keep Cover Tightly Closed. By restoring the lid to original tightness by firm finger pressure each time opened, factory freshness of cigarettes may be preserved indefinitely." The other side has fine print and "Factory No. 7 District of VA., Made in U.S.A."
It doesn't smell much like cigarettes inside, more like old dresser drawers. I don't know exactly how old it is except it came out 90 years after Philip Morris & Company was founded.
Vintage Round Wooden ORBROS BAROMETER Made in Germany! - eBay (item 310047321486 end time May-09-08 19:58:39 PDT) This Orbros barometer was made in Germany. It has a round wooden frame, a metal hanging loop and a dial with fancy lettering. Numbers fill the border. The words, "Stormy, Rain, Change, Fair, Very Dry" fill the inner dial. You can see the inner workings through a window at the center.
The back plate is metal with three large and three small screws. It hangs on a wall by a round metal loop. The varnish of this vintage Orbros barometer is crackled.
1942 BULLETMAN #11 Mighty Midget Comic Fawcett 4X5-Inch - eBay (item 310047312100 end time May-09-08 19:02:45 PDT) This little Mighty Midget comic features Bulletman the Flying Detective. This and the other titles in this series were ALL marked #11. The cover says, "34 Action-Filled Pages Featuring--Bulletman and Bulletgirl!" It's a Fawcett Publication published in 1942.
The Mac Raboy cover shows a tiny logo on the bottom right with a shield and the words, "Be An American." The back cover is plain except for the image of a stamp that says, "For Victory. Buy United States War Bonds and Stamps."
The centerfold (see third picture) was missing from this copy, but we have scanned one from another copy and printed it out back-to-back like the original on similar aged pulpy paper.
About half the pages are black and white, the other half black and white and red. It's a nice solid copy.
Does this special vintage Mighty Midget comic book make you smile?
Fifties Theater Flyer ELVIS PRESLEY Jailhouse Rock + 5! - eBay (item 310047021585 end time May-08-08 20:07:04 PDT) This old red and white theater flyer from the Max Sibley theater (wherever that was) covered movies shown in December and January of an unnamed year, probably in the fifties. It touts four movies and a double feature.

- Lloyd Nolan
- The Long Haul--Silk, flesh and dynamite!
- Why do they call us--Young and Dangerous
This flyer is in good condition. The worst fault is a moisture stain that doesn't touch Elvis. It has a few dents, a crease where it was folded and two small mended edge tears.
Does this vintage flyer with Elvis Presley make you smile?
87 BUCK ROGERS DAILY STRIPS 1932 Clippings Sequence! - eBay (item 310047012129 end time May-08-08 19:13:44 PDT) This is almost a hundred strips in sequence clipped from a daily newspaper in which they appeared in 1932. Buck Rogers was created by Philip Francis Nowlan and drawn by Dick Calkins. This sequence is a good story that goes from number 1051 to 1137.
It's difficult to find such a long run as this any more. They're 76 years old. If you have the Buck Rogers Big Little Books, this sequence fits between Moons of Saturn and 25th Century A.D. A listing we found online calls this story Beneath the Greenland Ice Sheet.
This sequence of vintage Buck Rogers clippings is in good condition, a bit brittle but not crumbling. A couple have been nicely repaired using similar newsprint stock. One such repair is shown in the second photo. Two or three others are taped from behind because of accidental scissors cuts.
Stumble It!
