    Found this delicate little 6" bud vase at our GW. Never heard of this company before. It's very light and fragile and amazingly has no damage. It's a pale green basket weave pattern which doesn't show up very well in the pictures. Dates from the late 50's early 60's. -Mike-

      Yep have to make up for all those days when I found almost nothing...lol. I almost bought a "repro" Roseville vase today it even had the made in China sticker still on it, but I passed. I went back for another little Weller vase like my green one and it was gone because they put it on Facebook, It was tan with different handles but almost the same, I moped all day yesterday...lol :)

      Seems you're the only one here and now everyone else is gone. That's kind of weird. Yeah I got over it...I just hate when they post the good things on Facebook, The Cleveland store is the only one that does that, but they are also the only ones with a rewards point card . Almost got my 100 points for 5 bucks off my next purchase.

      You should pick them up Eye. Nldionne is collecting the top one hundred McCoy pieces. She inspired me to start collecting McCoy. Planters are pretty common but I like them if the design is nice. The pitchers can be worth a few dollars too like the red one I posted a couple weeks ago. Plus they're really easy to identify :)

      Yep..I've seen those a couple of times. I thought they wanted too much for them. GW seem to go crazy when it comes to McCoy. However I got my huge quilted pattern jardinere for only 8 bucks. Really don't know how they let that get by them. Probably because it was so huge. It's has a matching pedestal I'm still searching for.

      Sometimes it's just a matter of money better spent else where. Those little planters can be space wasters. I'll pick one up only for the lack of anything else, so I don't go home empty handed...lol.
