Wallace Silverplate Large Tongs: Grand Baroque?

Up for auction are really nice 8 1/4″ long silver tongs marked Wallace Silverplate on the inside handle. The pattern looks like Wallace’s popular Grand Baroque pattern, but I’m not sure. One spoon bowl has a pierced design and the other bowl is solid. Excellent condition, looks unused, would work for ice or serving any salad, fruit or vegetable.

Kid In A Sailor Suit

originally posted in Elsewhere 11/20/03, can’t remember what it got.

This poor kid in the sailor suit was really mad the day he had to go get this picture taken. He had new marbles and no interest in photography, or posterity. His mom made him do this. This card was apparently produced by Barnard, Wallace, Idaho, measures approximately 4 1/4″ x 6 1/2″, and is clean, shiny and sharp except for a very slightly dented upper right corner and a little bitty spot (quite insignificant, I think) in the upper left corner, about 1″ in and 1″ down. Back is blank.

Uncle Irwin’s Rocks

Originally posted in Elsewhere 7/17/05

A number of years ago, I bought some rocks from Uncle Irwin (not my Uncle) who was an avid rockhound.

Well, actually, I bought them from Antie Dah-riss, but they were Irwin’s. She was just getting rid of them. I asked her not to cash my check right away, but she did anyway, making the rocks twice as expensive for me.

We have found that the rocks should be “next” in our series of auctions so we are going to do them next.
