Huge Estate Sale in Tonawanda, NY

[bluejay]

There's a lot of new old stock stuff, but there are also a few vintage appliances for anyone in the Tonawanda area.

 

The sale starts tomorrow.  There are at least 2 vintage stoves, a couple of vintage TVs, and this dryer:

WOW. That looks to be one incredible wet-dream of a sale! The curtains, the furniture, the lamps, the dishes, the kitchen, the NOS detergents, the TVs... AMAZING!

Glad it's not in Minneapolis, or I'd be pitching a tent and shining up the credit card! LOL

 

[swestoyz]

Wow, they've packed that place full of goodies. I wonder how much was original vs. what the company brought in?

My brain exploded... LOL 

 

That GE dryer looks like an early 60s model.  

 

[atomict]

Wow

That is a crap load of stuff.  Why oh why does it have to be an 6 hour drive away???

That's MikeyD's neck of the woods

Finally got all the pics to work... I dunno but I do not in any way shape or form believe this is an "estate sale" of stuff from the owners house. It looks way too staged and I would near bet my life 90% of that stuff was trucked in there under false pretenses.. or am I full of it?

Mother of Jefferson Davis!!!!!

Now is when it would be nice to be rich!! Get in the moving van and GO!!!!Thats a 50 GE stove and a Norge gas stove!

I agree with Petek. Most of that stuff was trucked in.

 

[launderess]

Oh My...

I'ze getting the vapors! Pass the smelling salts?

Already have the GE toaster and Regina Electrikbroom, but oh my that detergent stash!

Lemon scented FAB detergent sadly (or gladly depending upon one's point of view) lacked today's chemical fixatives that keep scent lingering for weeks, months or years. The few boxes one has been able to nab and try had nary a whiff of lemon to them. Pity.

That dryer is paired with a 1992 Filter-Flo

Estate Sale

I'm there Friday to check it out !!!!

 

[petek]

3.5 hr drive for me.. I'll pass. Plus I have the feeling they'll be lining up out the doors

 

[gansky1]

Polish up that credit card and grab every single box of that detergent!

NOS towels, colored toilet tissue, too much to carry in one load to the car. It's going to be a bloodbath in the first couple of hours - sale safely!

 

[Ultramatic]

 

 

A 6 hr drive for me. I might as well keep going to innocently walk about Church street in Toronto. 

 

[tolivac]

NEAT-this is something I dream about.

The dryer is the 1958 WA-820R that began the panel style that would persist until 1963. The model began as a re-working of the 1957 TOL (without pedestals) and was redesigned mid-year. There is a member here (Bygted, I think) who owns one of these:

 

[whirlaway]

Goodness Gracious!!!!!!!!

I never!!!! I had to change my underdrawers twice!!!!!! I thought I had some things,but I never,are you sure the name of the street isnt Heavens Way!

 

[launderess]

If there was HSR to that part of NYS would consider, but am not driving >six hours or incurring the expense of a plane and car rental even for a chance at such a haul. *LOL*

Those laundry and other consumer products look in very good condition to have been all stored in someone's home for years. Perhaps they are part of NOS from a store or something?

MickeyD is being awful quiet on this...... Hmmmmm.....
