Past auctions:

Toshiba 6TP-309 "Transistor Six" pocket radio

A Classic 1950's transistor radio. This is a Toshiba 6TP-309 Transistor Six pocket radio. This 6 transistor radio has the classic "V" face which makes it known as the "ultra-cool deep vee" radio. This model is one of the top classics of the 1950s portable transistor radios. Tuning dial has "CD" (Civil Defense) marks that many radios from the Cold War era had to aid in the finding emergency stations.

Antique Victorian 1906 Copper Coffee Pot and tray

This antique coffee percolator and matching serving tray are copper with brass and wood handles. The percolator also has an alcohol burner/warmer located under the pot. The manufacturer of this pot is Landers, Frary & Clark, New Britain Conn. (stamped on side of percolator strainer along with several patent dates from '05 and '07 and the words ""UNIVERSAL" No.369") but it is very similar to the Manning-Bowman & Co. copper coffee pots I have also seen from this time period. The only other markings are located under the burner: "PATD MAR 20/05 JULY 17/06" (see pic #3). Serving tray is engraved in the center with very ornate initials and what looks to be 1901 or 1907. Spout does not turn and pot could use a through cleaning however, it would make an excellent display piece for a restaurant or placed on an antique sideboard.
