Early ford battery box. Saw it tucked away on a shelf. Paid 10 bucks for it

Jacobean style sideboard, around 1910-1925, once sold by a local furniture store, found at a garage sale right next door for $60. One door is wonky and a drop pull handle has been replaced with something sorta kinda close, but we had a spot for it. These are before and after images. It holds dishes, tablecloths, silverware and, obviously, hooch.
I wish it hadn't been refinished, as the color is now wrong and the polyurethane finish is super incorrect. Eh. It works.

Here's a couple finds from last Saturday. One dollar each. I hope I do as well when I go out tomorrow.

A 60s vintage Swagerty Kook-A-Lā-Le Uke. It was designed so you could plunge that long neck into the sand when you want to go out for a surf session.

Some really old aviator sunglasses. The delivery label on the box just has the person's name and the small town they lived in. I guess there was no need for an address in a really small town. If there's anybody knowledgeable about who made these I'd love to know.
