Clocks, and Radios, and Other Things I Love

that I can never seem to resist buying.

This wonderful old clock even works.
has key and all.
Isn't it beautiful?
 love the face......
and on some, the crustier and older the better. 
No one seems to care if they work or not. 
just love to display them. like me. =)
On the left in this pic is not a clock,
 but an old sports timer.And it works! a loud buzzer though.

I love how you can just add a clock to any old display and it makes it special.


 Now to old radios, another fave.

Love this will all the buttons on each side.
 again, does not seem to matter to most if they work or not...
They just love the old look of them.
I think this one is much more than a radio.
Click on teh pic to make it bigger,
then see if you can tell me what it is?

Here is one more old radio and I'll be done for today.
Love the rounded edges on this one....
It is an old battery operated Farm radio...
This one can easliy be made to work again

someone elses project though, not mine.=)

 


I guess I said "other things I love" too, but will save those for another day.

Thanks for visiting.
 be blessed

New Treasures & What Is It's?




Cool old radio.....

seen better days, but I liked it anyway.
New eye glasses, in cases.
A rare find for me.


A "What is it"?
For heating something I'm guessing.
It is only about 9x4".
more info: the top plate is steel sort of material.

Has this heating base under it.

See the cool little snuffer attached to it? cool huh?
It just flips over to put flame out.
This is on the bottom.
Another "What is it?"
Anyone know what this tin is?
Besides the lid next to it,
there is another lid with handle on it.

So those are just a few of my great finds lately.
Computer is giving me trouble, so will post when I can
