I like the school house.  When was it last used as a school?

A guy should buy those glass baby bottles and put them back.  With the recent studies on the plastic ones, I would say they are in for a big come back.  A lot of really nice items..

Hey Everyone! My parents have owned the school for over 30 years. They turned it into an ice cream shop on one side and an antique store on the other. It closed about 2 years ago. After my Mom passed last Sep, my Dad wanted to sell everything and move to Florida. They had a ton of antiques, old cars, log cabins that my grandfather and Dad moved from two locations to my parents back yard in the 60's. A lot of cool and old stuff. Some of the items will be available to bid on on bid spotter.com. I will let you know, when the items are posted to the site. Should be soon. Hate to see a lot of it go, but it is time.

Dan,

BTW, last time the school was an actual school was the 1960's.

Looks like there is lots of good stuff there.  I am for sure going to watch it on bidspotter.

Wow, Brian!  What a great collection of treasures your parents amassed!  I'll definitely have to keep an eye on a couple things there...just wish I was closer to be able to get a few of the big things!  I miss going to auctions that had stuff like that!  The Midwest is a real treasure trove!!!  Good luck!

Thanks everyone! I will let you know when bidspotter gets up and running on the items, in case you want to bid. I am sure it will be tough for the family to see things be sold, but it will be good for my Dad to move on. He really wants to go to Florida and enjoy the sunshine and golf!

Hey Gang! I will be posting a link to bid spotter in a few days. You can go there and bid on any of the soda machines or signs I am selling. I have a ton of stuff that I am letting go of. Most of it is my 16 year collection of 7up signs, clocks and light ups. I am keeping my restored stuff for now.

Thanks!

Brian
