This sugar and creamer set is backstamped "Buffalo China 1918" and matches a dessert set of plates, cups and saucers that are handpainted Nippon from the 1910s. My research revealed that during the 1920s and 30s, the Larkin Co. of Buffalo, New York, offered its mail order customers several popular patterns of Noritake china as a premium with their mail orders. This sugar and creamer set appears to pre-date that offer and is not one of the patterns listed in the catalogs I could find. 

Both pieces are in very good condition with no chips, cracks or crazing.  The gold has some tiny "bubbling" which I expect occurred at the time of manufacturing and minor wear commensurate with age.  

Could this be a rare item?  Any information would be much appreciated.  

This old press allow printing of numbers on banknotes. 

It is still functional.

This "little brown jug" was salvaged from a 103 year old farmhouse in northern California. There are no discernible markings on it, except for the number "2" on the top near the handle. There is a circular indented line around the top of the jug, starting and ending between the top and bottom of the handle. The bottom is tan in color and the jug is dark brown. There is a cork in the jug, which looks pretty old and dried out, that we have not attempted to remove. The jug is 29" in diameter and about 12" tall.

I inherited an old argus anastigmat camera from my family's drug store in 2003.

no idea what year it was manufactured but 

"no. 197146" is stamped inside the back cocovering is in great condition any may still work.

Any info you could give me on its value would be helpful.

This is a WWII Nazi Armband I saw at a store. If it is genuine I want to purchase it. Is it genuine? What is the value of the piece?

thank you

This is an original 1964 Mountain Dew aluminum advertising sign. Judging by the text on the lower right corner I would say it was made in Lynchburg, VA by A-M Inc.  Measures 35.5" x 59.5"

It has been stored in a dry basement for the past 20+ years
