Picked these up at a militaria collector show today.




Korean War 224th Infantry Regiment DUI (Distinctive Unit Insignia). The 224th was a unit of the California National Guard which was part of the 40th Infantry Division.

Ha! That was the plan

You ain’t got a hair on your…if you don’t mount that in the grill.

That started ticking in my head the minute I saw it.

Found this old gas pump nozzle and a giant vampire bat at the flea market yesterday.

Ducks and Jesus again (the art theme in our bedroom— the “Duck ‘n Jesus” room).

The 50-cent Jesus is small enough to squeeze in.

$10-dollar-Donald? Admittedly a bit out of my duck art collecting wheelhouse, but I liked it and the story behind it.

Great Find! I miss my Good Will Hunting days but they started selling the "good" stuff online & the stores had the junk.

Limited Ed Prints are better pieces even if unknown. That one is lovely & seems to have significant value. Congrats.

This dog art is more my style.

A coffee table book of R C Gorman art. This 14” x 11” x 1-1/4”, 246 page book weighs 6-1/2 pounds! $1.00.

A matted/framed Amado Maurilio Peña Jr. (born 1943) print (print size 22” x 28”). Excuse the reflections. $3.00.

Love this hat brim.

Heavy, vintage bookends featuring oak leaves and acorns. $10.00.

An (unstuffed) Santa pillow made into an apron. 1950s. The exact same version of the pillow I’ve had since my first Christmas. Thinking about making it a pillow for my granddaughter. $9.00.

Updating the lights in our house from 80’s to the 30/40’s. Saw this at the owners house and since I have a German Shepherd I had to have it. Don’t know anything about it other than the mark on the back. We will be hanging a 20-30’s slip shade in dining room as well.

I found out that my shepherd light is apparently something called ‘chalk ware’. Not a super rare or expensive item but I really like-so don’t care.

 

[panigale]

1921 parlor stove and WWII British ammo can.

Recent thrift store finds. Pantanetti italian boots, McHale shoes from late 60s and a Vintage Mongoose bike from the 90s. These all cleaned up like new.

Vintage concrete Poodle. A little over 2-feet tall. Will be used in the pet cemetery.

I think they were a 9. Sold them to a fellow in Vancouver.
