Meanwhile in Oak Brook

I usually avoid the upscale neighborhoods; their stuff is too classy for me. But I had limited time and this was nearby.

 

They did have one of the nicest stereo cabinets I've seen in a long time.


But I'm still focusing on flat things, so I picked up a cuppla nice Elvis LP's and the Knack's first album still in the plastic.



Generally, people running sales think that anything with Elvis or Beatles on it is automatically valuable. At this sale all the LP's were a buck and Elvis was mixed in with a lot of country albums. This is where you get your best deal: when everything is priced the same.

Tray Bien

Tray Bien

Downers Grove 8/15 Nifty house on a huge lot with 2 garages, 1 a giant 5 car barn.

I like these trays. I have 2 of these that were given to me. Different pictures with nice tropical themes.
These are the first I've come across at a sale. Both have the same picture, just different size.

Midcentury modern is not for everybody but if you dig it you dig it

Nothing like a nice 50's sectional still in the plastic

Should have grabbed the lamp


I see potential in these consoles with turntable and radio.
