Flea Market Finds !!!
Nice job on the fans. I usually get around $80 - $90 for the brass bladed fans unrestored. Not too many left around here anymore. I was picking a farm house 2 weeks ago, and got a nice load of mantle clocks, pottery, china, crocks, bamboo fishing rods, etc. I was lucky to get these 3 hanging oil lamps for under $100, and these tin toys for $10 in the deal.
Stopped at a yard sale this past weekend and bought another bamboo rod, and a Sage fly rod and reel, as well as a Fenwick rod with an Orvis reel, with a spare spool, that were used only once. Also got 2 pair of waders, and all cost less than $20. I checked the retail on the newer rods/reels, and it is over $700. Ya, I'm grinning. Tim
