ah, the retirement home shop turned up some stuff today
Advertisements [?]
Walked over to visit my auntie at the retirement home, and spent some time combing the donations shop for goodies.

Four vintage swedish signed tiles from the 60s for fifty cents each. My friend in the mid-west who likes to sell these when she finds them says they're good for $20-30 on eBay each.

A souvenir tray that appears to be a copper veneer. It has peacocks on either side and a large decorative building in the middle that looks to me like some kind of pavilion -- maybe a world's fair. Gotta do some research on that one. I've never seen a copper veneer before.

An Eames atomic style decorative pottery bowl -- white with a nobby exterior. Gotta research this one. There is a mark, but I don't know what it is.

Some pieces of Iroquois pattern pottery dinnerware and two serving bowls. I love this stuff. I might keep it.

That was fun.
