Recent Acquisitions

Not much work on miniatures last week but I did pick up a few items.  I came across The Doll House Book at a local used book store for $1.25 this last weekend.  It was a good read and very informative.  I love how the author had the book made in the shape of a house.  It will go great with my other books on miniatures:  click here 

  These are  the items have picked up over the last few weeks on my lunch break.

I came across the small brass and glass box at an estate sale.  I am not sure what to do with it yet, but I thought it seemed pretty neat.  The maple rocker and small tricycle were at another estate sale with a bunch of Christmas ornaments and the collection of small pottery was at a local antique mall. I like the chamber pot that says "gents" or is it a spittoon?  The blue and multi-color glaze on the pitcher second from the right, has a great arts and crafts/art deco look.  The green earthy pitcher will probably end up in my cabin.
