12/28/14 - I haven't posted for awhile but I have been busy doing Christmas things. I think it is finally over. Today we went to Columbus, Indiana to deliver the last Christmas gift to one of Randy's daughter. On the way back we made a quick stop at a little inside flea market in Shelbyville. Unfortunately we got there right at closing time. They allowed us to make a quick lap around the place. I ran across this piece of furniture that sure looks like it was made to go with the antique bedroom furniture I have at the farm. I am not home yet but will compare it when I get there. In the meantime I will get it posted before I forget.
The sad thing is that the shop owners told me it was sold. I probably wouldn't have bought it anyway, I may go back again when they are open to try to find out who the new owner is and if they know any more about the history of this piece.
I was told today this piece sold for $700. The owners also said they had an appraiser tell them the piece was worth $800 to $1500. They just wanted to sell it. I know, big difference between low and high appraisal.
The picture at the right was taken so I could compare it to the trim on my pieces.
Signing off...........more to do.
