Just bought a new house and found this huge Santa poster in surprisingly good condition. Says Phillip Sales and Made in USA along bottom, but no other markers. Small tear on left side (but not on Santa) and what appears to be staple holes along the edges.

Framed print, measures 11.25" x 17" and was a wedding gift to someone back in 1928.

The Spiked Flail (also known as a “ball-and-chain” or “military flail”) has a 4.5″ heavy metal ball with several triangular spikes (one of the spikes is missing the end tip) that’s attached to an 11-link chain connected to a wooden one-handed 20″ handle with worn-in depressions where fingers were placed (small chip in the wood toward the bottom of the handle). You can see a video of it on YouTube or see it listed for sale in my Collectibles Store.

It's in pristine condition as far as I can tell.

I rescued these two butterfly pieces from our local dump. I think they were initially in frames. There was a blue pattern border that went around them, most of which was missing by the time I got them. They are on silk, maybe? I don't really know if they are painted, printed, or sewn on. I am completely at a loss on them, so any help would be great. I tried to Google translate them and search the image, but neither helped.

I did enhance the color on the pictures; if that is a problem, I can get them out of the fire safe and retake them.

Someone tossed this chair at the local dump, and I was able to rescue it. I have searched and searched online for it with no luck. I don't know how old it is or where it was made. There are no markings underneath it. I have done very little as far as cleaning it goes (I just went over it with the shop vac one time). Some of the detail on the legs is peeling off; I don't know if it belongs in the dump or not (either way, I like the way it looks, so I am happy I rescued it!!). It may not even be that old!! I really am at a loss on this one and would appreciate any help I could get!!
