I had 7 antique stores at one time and did 4 to 6 shows a month in addition to the mail order. I since closed all the stores and moved to the Garden State, New Jersey where I manage a printing company. My interests include California pottery, Franciscan, Restaurant China, Kitchen Collectibles, 20th Century Modern and ephemera. I love researching my finds and take great pride in what I sell. I take great pride in providing high quality photos, detailed descriptions and I take the time to clean the merchandise (we all know that is not common at all!) . All items come from a smoke & animal free environment.   Thank you & Good luck bidding! apPaul      Place a Bid!
