oops, pics of feet are to small, i'll try again
I'd like to own 3 houses to put antiques in. I have Victorian covered and I need a bungalow and a house for early American as well. Until then, all my brain can absorb right now is Victorian and I'm starting to learn Mission furniture. Some day I'll get to the earlier stuff as I appreciate that as well.
rare, funny how one starts collecting and before you know it, you have moved on into another area. in my case, many moons ago, i started collecting victorian furniture until one day i attended an auction with a paint decorated mid 18th century pennsylvania german dower chest. i have been hooked ever since but, i still have that 1st piece of victorian furniture that started it all and will never sell it.
