Cookware set...
Way too much, but I wasnt going to let that greasy haired hussy that was bidding against me get it!!LOL! But I will say it was less than a hundred dollars.

You really cleaned up with all that stuff. It pays when people who want to move or (unfortunately) die and turn out to be hoarders. You can get brand new (or seldom used) items for next to nothing like you did.

You Are AMAZING.
Hans:
I don't see how you do it! Absolutely phenomenal finds - you find more in a weekend than I do in a year.
What's really impressive is how often you find MIB stuff. The things I find here locally aren't just used - they usually need more cosmetic work than Joan Crawford got at Campbell's Funeral Chapel.
I sometimes think I should send you my "wish list," but I'm scared you'd find it all at once - and then I'd owe you thousands!
Seriously, great stuff!

Congratulations! Glad you had fun.
I wondered what the wooden lady's home companion was for and then I saw the chenois for jelly and jam making. Pretty neat set. You are so very kind to unpack all of it for us to see. I would have just kept it packed & put it away. Does your friend get the whole set or just the trivet? $117.00 was a hell of a lot of money in 1953. It's a good thing that Presto fryer thing was never used because they were hard to keep clean not being immersible.
What's the writing on the Santa set? Looks like Ba something on the one with Santa and then 2530 on the next one. Dasher & Dancer, Prancer & Vixen, Comet & Cupid & Donder & Blitzen & RUDOLPH
Has the rubber spatula petrified?

Holy freaking cow! Are you sure you didn't time travel to the 1950's with quick stopovers in the '60s and '70s?! Congratulations and enjoy every single wonderful item.

Suprisingly...
The rubber mat and spatula,"Both labeled Rubbermaid" are just as soft and flexible as they could be, My friend Ron"Dynaflow on here" is getting the whole set, he is just about the most generous person on earth, and his Mother has had a set of Vita Craft since the 50s, so now he has a brand new set.
