I found this hanker-chief with some other antiques I have. I found it folded up inside an old flapper purse. From what I can tell it is in great shape. there are three separate stains on the hanker-chief (which are in photos). I would think the stains can be removed, but I'm not sure what would be the best way to clean them.(should i Iron it?) on one side there is a sticker that says "RNI4750,100% cotton,Made in Japan". and on the other side there is a sticker that says "Hand Painted". I do not know what the value of the hanker-chief is. But I would like to sell it. as far as dating, I would guess around 1950's.
I don't know much about the desk's history, other than where it was made. I found it in an antique shop in Cannon City, CO. The shop is called Score. The owner sold it to me for $150.00. I think it's solid Oak. It's very heavy... it took 4 men to lift it into the truck. The desk has leather on the top with gold designs around the edge of the leather, a center drawer that locks, two pull out writing trays in the front (one on the left & one on the right), two file drawers, and one box drawer. I think it also had a full size tablet writing tray in the back of the desk for your guests. The legs are nicely detailed.
This is a sewing machine I got from a friend of my mom and it doesn't have a model number but it has G7325842 that is the serial number they said its a 127 or 128 model thats from about 1923 or 1925.
Louvered, moving left to rt reads "HEINZ TOMATO SOUP, HEINZ (on big pickle), then read HEINZ BAKED BEANS". I know for a fact that Mr. H J Heinz ll, paid $600 in 1969 foor a faded sign, for the Company Centennial. (I was an Ass't Mgr in Heinz Trade & Public Relations Dept then. This sign is exceptionally rare and I have not been able to find another for value comparison. The Heinz Company may have used them in their local Company Store and made similar signs for their better customers. These had the louvered area compressed hoizontally by 2/3 to allow printing of the customer store info on one end. The colors are cream of tomato on the ouside bevel, then navy blue. There is gold framing around the copy and tin louver ares. The Heinz pickle is on a cream background and he product names are spelled out in cream.
This is a table that my great uncles grandfather built & had patented. The patent was filed for on aug, 7, 1922 & the patent was received dec, 23, 1924. The serial # is 580,025 & the patent # is 1,520,337. I have all the original sketches, application , & the patent. It was the only one ever produced. Very unique, truly one of a kind. Do a google patent search on the pat. # to see all the pics.
