Thanks for looking and/or bidding on my auction. Nearly all of my items are used and/or vintage items from estate sales, flea markets or picks. A majority of the items I sell are cleaned as lightly as possible to preserve the old patina look or restore some of their original appearance. A few items I sell just as I found them; Either case, they may have minor surface dents, dings, corrosion, soil and patina.
