WELCOME to TIME to AGAIN. We are delighted to have you visit!
We are a small, independent collector/trader/dealer who has bought and sold antiques and collectibles since the 1970's - yep a looonnng time. Over the years we have learned a lot about quality - and not so great - collectibles. We have been fooled and swindled and also had a marvelous time buying and selling some beautiful things from some wonderful folks.
Some of the things we've learned include:
1. NOBODY knows EVERYTHING about antiques.
2. Not everything is going to go up in value!
3. The condition of an antique or collectible is RARELY perfect!
You won't find 1,000 items in our store but we guarantee that what we have is authentic and interesting. We have sold on the internet both on EBay and Yahoo since 1999 and will be happy to share our feedback from those sites. We wish to assure you:
1. All of our item descriptions will be as accurate and complete as we can make them.
2. All of our photos are of the item for sale.
3. We will respond to all inquiries as promptly as possible, package securely and ship to you promptly.
************************** ESTATE ************************
In the summer of 1992 I did something I had never done before - or since. I lost my head and purchased the entire estate of a recently deceased, 85 year old woman (born 1906). That purchase was the education and entertainment of a lifetime. It took me - literally - years to identify some of the contents! This lady had never married and was the family-keeper. Items of her parents and grandparents reaching back to the early/mid-1800's were found as well as those of her lifetime. The contents spanned OVER 100 years and much of it very high quality.
Over time, of course, much of this estate has either been sold or the decision made to keep items. Gone now is the beautiful Loetz vase, the stunning Kestner doll, many deguerreotypes mid-1800's writing implements, much lovely furniture, etc, etc. I couldn't part for a long time, however with largely two categories of items - TEXTILES & PAPER - that now it's "time to again" pass them on for someone else to treasure. Any of the items listed in my store that say *ESTATE* are from this purchase. THE BUYER OF ANY OF THESE ITEMS WILL BE SENT A MORE COMPLETE PROVENANCE!
