Hand Made Red Crochet Dress 50's Doll
This past weekend I received an urgent call....."quick you gotta get over here the house around the corner is having an auction!" The house was 2 miles away and in the time it took to drive there I received 4 more urgent calls..."They have thousands of old dolls from all over.....you better hurry!". My bud Melissa was right! The estate was fantastic! It was a house full of antique furniture, and every collectible you can think of. It was a pickers dream come true! Unfortunately for me this town is filled with dealers and their dream came true too. At the peak of the auction there were 300+ people. Things were going for a pretty penny. I spotted several things of interest but most were bid so high that it was ridiculous. I did manage to get a few cherished items at a reasonable rate. The dealers must have been getting tired. I managed to pry from a doll dealers hands one box lot out of blinking story book dolls and a lot of dolls from other countries. The Native American pieces are my favorite, they show such workmanship that you rarely find. Enjoy the view!
