  1. Hi, halfasleeprhett. :-) You didn't link the other CW S&T post. Here it is: https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/10599-leonis-adamas-keg-tap I thought it was pretty informative, but then ...
  2. itsforsale, You have Google Lens to thank, because without it I was like, "Um, yeah, what IS that thang?" };-) Thank you for marking it "MYSTERY SOLVED." BTW, you still have a duplicate post: ...
  3. Hi, itsforsale. :-) Google Lens found a bunch of them (yours is missing the bowls that are suspended on those pairs of spikes): *snip* VINTAGE EVERLAST FORGED ALUMINUM FERRIS WHEEL CONDIMENT ...
  4. rebmking, Kudos on finding that patent. :-)
  5. Grantcody: "Keramikos, there are 75 posts. And I live on an acreage in a small town in northern Minnesota so idk how I’d go about doing a display." Sorry, I misread your earlier comment. Seventy...
  6. Hi, Carol777. :-) I love spoon-style caddies. I did find one similar caddy that's described as being of George III period and made by William Parkin of Sheffield: https://antiqueforager.com/p...
  7. AWISEOWL, Cool. :-) Here's a PDF of the 1986 edition: https://vdoc.pub/download/the-bad-popes-5unm8hcckk50
  8. Manikin: "I was surprised when I stopped in and saw page in such a mess. Yes Ben kept things going and was a really nice guy . Glad site is still up but they need someone like Ben again , I see err...
  9. Newfld: "When we were having all the meltdown issues, the social media remark was from another CWer TallCakes, whose knowledge is pretty great and thus I tend to believe it - makes sense doesn't it...
  10. Ted_Straub, You're welcome, FWIW. I was initially resistant to the idea of this glass container being designed for coffee, because it seemed rather small (3.75" tall, 6 oz capacity), and had no han...
  11. Newfld, Thanks for your comments here. I was trying (without success) to figure out exactly when it was that Ben Marks left CW. I recall that meltdown of the CW S&T software (although, again, I can...
  12. Emsien, Information about Crystal E Speaker seems a bit thin on the ground. I did find another bottle, but it seems newer than yours, or maybe just in better condition: *snip* One 6 1/2oz. Cryst...
  13. Grantcody, You are very welcome. I found it an enjoyable rabbit hole. :-) As to what you should do with the posts, it depends on how many of them you found. However, you might consider mounting ...
  14. Manikin: "I have been gone for awhile . Where did Ben go ? He was in charge of site ??? I see so many posts that are repeated 10 times . Good grief." Oh dear. Ben has been gone for a good while ...
  15. crazydanmusic, It looks like you've cleaned up all the duplicate posts. Thank you. :-)
  16. Ted_Straub, Cool. :-) I would have thought that this was a container for cream rather than coffee. I have a smaller one (probably about one ounce, so a single serving size). However: https://...
  17. I got distracted by Shel Silverstein the other day. };-) Here's a Hathitrust copy of 1961's "For Yound Adults Only" for anybody who wants to peruse this time capsule: https://babel.hathitrust.or...
  18. AWISEOWL: "AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE TABLE OF CONTENTS IN THE 3RD. PIC, THIS BOOK IS LIKE A PRE DR. SPOCK PARENTING GUIDE. THREE YEARS LATER, IN 1964, THE BEATLES INVADED AMERICA AND THIS BOOK PROBA...
  19. Hola, Maolve25. :-) Por favor, disculpe cualquier error, ya que estoy usando DeepL para traducir del inglés. Puedes probar la guía en este sitio web: https://colescuckoos.com/blogs/news/datin...
  20. Steptoe, Google Lens found a 'twin': https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/menton-manor-otter-heredities-friends-542635888 It sounds like this figurine, like the one of the rabbit with babies ...
  21. Steptoe1, Not sure exactly what jscott0363 meant about using lemon juice; however, I don't think it would be a good idea in this case, because I suspect that what you have in this case is cold cast b...
  22. As to the photo-bombing feline: cats just gotta be where the action is. It's cute in a picture, but sometimes when you're either doing something complicated, or it isn't going well, it's...not so c...
  23. fortapache, I agree that the suitcase that converts to a table is way cool. Are the dishes and other accessories melamine, or what?
  24. Hi, Jafar. :-) It looks like perhaps you used a lot of non-Roman alphabet characters in your post, the Collectors Weekly Show & Tell couldn't interpret them, and substituted question marks. The ...
  25. inky, What a beautiful Beyermann piece.
  26. PhilDMorris: "All the extra posts this peson made up should be deleted. I hope you can figure how to do that !~" Right now, it doesn't seem like a hugely difficult task. Ka-ching hasn't posted a...
  27. Ka-ching, You have five identical posts: https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/325244-acid-etch-mark-on-base-of-decanter-d https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/325243-acid-etch-mark-on-ba...
  28. BHIFOS: "when CW tells you it failed to finish uploading your post open another screen and check your profile page and you'll see it probably has. Another glitch since the change in who runs it." ...
  29. PhilDMorris: "yes he did take the hard drive only and I thought it better to give up the old comp." Yup, a 2007 PC probably couldn't even be updated to the latest version of whatever OS you were...
  30. PhilDMorris, I'm not sure I understood all of the comments about your computer problems, especially the one about erasing sites. Was your IT repair person trying to revive the whole 2007 Dell PC, o...
  31. This source says that the original photograph for the image in this post was taken by John Florea in 1953: https://perfectlymarilynmonroe.com/post/626919679106138112/marilyn-monroe-photographed-by-...
  32. HaifaHiFi, That image also appeared in the July 1955 issue of Photoplay: https://m.famousfix.com/post/marilyn-monroe-photoplay-magazine-united-kingdom-july-1955-14714713?nx=35772271 I'm not sure...
  33. Heather.n.Earth, I'm going to link your duplicate post here, as somebody gave some useful information on that one as well: https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/325186-discovered-teddy-bear-coll...
  34. mjazz, Interesting. "My mother said it might be a hat box" I suppose it could be, but is the container deep enough to store a hat? If it isn't, it still could have been designed as storage fo...
  35. PhilDMorris, No thanks needed. :-) Grantcody posted just enough information in the title to pique my curiousity. I didn't know what was special about WWI corkscrew fence posts, so I had to investig...
  36. fortapache, You're welcome. Poor JFK had to find out that there's a significant difference between "Ich bin Berliner," and "Ich bin ein Berliner." The citizens of Berlin did think it was funny, ...
  37. PhilDMorris, Whew indeed. It sounds like things are basically under control now.
  38. TallCakes, Thanks, I was having difficulty understanding how the contraption worked.
  39. Y'all. };-) Yeah, I thought it was a jelly doughnut, too. Or maybe it's that "Ich bin ein Berliner." A little mood music: He Ate Too Many Jelly Donuts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4...
  40. davezelhart, Interesting. I got a hit on Avon Dr. Zabriskie's Cutaneous soap at Pinterest: *snip* Avon 'Dr. Zabriskie's Soap' and Dr. Zabriskie's Cutaneous Soap' Germany various design boxes ...
  41. PhilDMorris: "I lost most of my photos now, as my old computer broke down" That's terrible. Is the disk completely unsalvageable?
  42. I think the family should be given the benefit of the doubt, and an attempt made to contact them. If the family can't be reached or doesn't care, then a historical society or museum would be good c...
  43. freiheit, That's beautiful.
  44. IronLace, Boy howdy, this one sure caught my eye. It's adorable. <3
  45. Grantcody, Cool. :-) I hadda look those up: *snip* In the December 2015 issue of Farm Collector, an article on the Vaughn post auger suggested that the U.S. Cavalry used the augers to create ...
  46. Oops, page seven: https://archive.org/details/N026634/N026634/page/7/mode/1up
  47. kirbeelomgren, Thank you for providing some of the last needed tidbits of information to solve this UNSOLVED MYSTERY post (even though the original OP is long-gone, and thus can't mark it as "SOLVED")...
  48. mp.kunst, Thanks for this. The original poster isn't around to care any more, but I do. };-) So the Beatles opened with "I'm Down" (I've always liked that one). McCartney doing his Little Richar...
  49. https://www.discogs.com/release/10168618-The-Beatles-Renaissance-Minstrels-Volume-II
  50. Interesting. Dunno why anybody would have described this as "THE BEATLES 'LAST LIVE SHOW,'" if it's a recording of the 1965 Shea Stadium concert (and it does look like that if you read in between t...
