The
Success Pump Vacuum The Success came in several versions over
the years, and the red ones are the earliest and hardest to find. The bellows
are OK but look fragile. I do not think this unusual vacuum would stand up
to daily use. Think of the coordination and skill it would take to operate
it. Crazy
Very Good .... $175.00 SOLD!
The Magic Carpet Vacuum This is one of the more interesting and graphic of these antique vacuums from Americas past, and it is in quite nice condition considering its age. I am no expert on these devices and began buying and selling them years ago just because I was intrigued with the design and idea. It is amazing how many different variations there are, and this must have been a hot market just before the advent or at least widespread availability of electricity in America. I have seen two person examples, water powered ones and a slew of other designs all intended to make the life of the housewife easier back near the turn of the century. Imagine for a moment if the "energy crisis" ever got really bad and you had to resort to this type of device to clean the house. Wow!

Unusual
Straight Razor Sharpening Machine This is the only one of these razor sharpeners / hones that
I have ever seen. Sure I have seen lots of other variations of razor sharpeners,
but never this particular one and to find it in the box and in this condition is
a doubly difficult task. The main question, and I think the answer explains
why there are so few of these around, is why would anyone bother, what with the
price of razors back then, but I guess that a dime was something to be considered
and a dollar something to be spent wisely, and not just on another razor when the
old one could be sharpened, again and again. How times have changed.Good + . . . . . $695.00 SOLD!
14" Lunkenheimer Steam Whistle This example is as clean as a whistle and is ready to be mounted or displayed. By the best known and most respected name in the business this steam whistle will make a wonderful addition to the collection.

"The
Henley" Roll About Scooter The condition is incredible. It is hard to
imagine that the kid this was given to did not want to use it, and the
it looks to have never been used given it is close to100 years old. I
saw one of these in not near as nice condition listed in the Maine
Antique Digest review of the Indy Ad Show with a price tage of $4500 on
it. Opportunity. Good + . . . . . $1750.00 SOLD!

Sterling Silver Indian Head Matchsafe The Sterling Indian
Chief Matchsafe on the left is a classic and a very hard to find example.
The condition is wonderful, noting one small dent in he bottom corner.

12" Brass Railroad / Locomotive
Bell This bell came out of a private collection here
in California and although unmarked has paperwork with it that says it came from
a small logging train that operated near the California Oregon border near the turn
of the century. I have the headlight from the same locomotive listed elsewhere
on the site. Tough to find anymore, bells this size and condition are a favorite
with the collecting crowd.

Heintz
Art Metal Bronze Vase
Otto Heintz was granted a patent
for his silver over bronze overlay design in 1912. This antique Bronze vase
stands about 8" tall. It is in very nice condition and the patina is original
and untouched. There is no damage to the silver overlay or other parts.
No dents. A very nice example.
