Brimfield / flea market finds - PICS

[perc-o-prince]

I'm posting pix of some of the things we found at Brimfield this past week. Did anyone else go and find any goodies? Post pix!!

Just couldn't resist the turquoise to light up my life!!!

Couldn't resist the ashtray since it sort of matched the lamp!

Sunbeam stick vac

This was the first thing that I found and the cheapest at $1! When was this made? I'm guessing late 1950's.

I don't have many blenders but I thought that these were kinda neat! These two plus the next one came from the same dealer.

one dollar Sunbeam gizmo

Rich is that an electric "broom" ?

The dealer said that the Electrasol came out of a house that had many bulk products stashed away. Most had to be thrown away. I got him to throw in the single box of Electrosol with the unopened case of a dozen. I paid the man...ran like hell making a CLEAN getaway . I found the Fels Naptha (one box not pictured) just a few minutes later in another booth!

Can anybody shed some light on the circa of these items? I'm guessing 1950's. The Fels was 28 cents and the Electrosol case says "NOT TO BE SOLD FOR LESS THAN 39 CENTS"

I've been wanting one of these...

BUT just wouldn't pay the shipping on an eBay one. Found this one for $20. I had to schlep this heavy beast across two fields. Just as I approached my car a woman asked "Oh, is that a mixer?" If I haden't been out of beath I was going to reply "No, it's the passenger side door to a 68 Ford Mustang I just didn't have the heart...or breath!! LOL

One of a pair

I have been looking for a nice pair of 50's lamps and as I was walking out of the booth where I just purchased the Manning Bowman toaster/tray (next pic, Chuck (my other half) said "Did you see the lamps?". The tent was dark and the lamps weren't lit so I would have missed them if Chuck didn't see them. I fell in love with the shades and the rest is history

The radio isn't a new find but the ice crusher is a B-field find. I just grouped it with the lamp and phono for the photo.

Kitchen Aid Mixer. I'd definitely wear my cargo pants

Manning Bowman toaster/tray

It is missing the divided glass condiment dish....I just won one on eBay last night so the set will be complete very soon. I just love toaster sets

 

[perc-o-prince]

This was just sheer luck!

I found the Toastmaster breakfast tray about a year ago with the hope of finding the toaster and very rare glass dishes. I have constantly looked on eBay, for the glass dishes, for nearly a year with no luck. I found the toaster at Brimfield on Tuesday and then found the glass dishes on Friday....at the Salvation Army!! No chips or crack and only 99 cants a dish!!!! It was like being on Viagra

Looks to have never been used

Another toaster that I've been looking for

Westinghouse 1920's

 

[toggleswitch]

ooooh FABULOUS.

May we have a peeksie inside that GE Toaster-oven?

 

[perc-o-prince]

I love the skeletal look when it's opened.
