I have only seen these old primitive tubs in country magazines, never in person. When they feature a rustic house, where the owners want an authentic period look, they will have one of these tubs.
In excellent condition, with beautiful dovetailed joints on corners, the tub itself is made of wood, and the inside is galvanized tin. One end is sloped for bathing comfort. Measures 66 inches long by 24 inches wide and stands approx. 20 inches tall. I think this may be one of my favorite finds ever! SOLD!

Cool shelving!
Primitive shelving unit measures 38" tall by 10" wide and 10-1/2" deep. This may have had a box in every slot at one time. There is one box at the bottom and it could be moved to any slot. The box itself has dovetailed joints at the corners. One side of the shelving unit is marked Haverhill, Mass, and what I think says Winchell. It's a little harder to make out the name. Nice compact size!

What an awesome old mixer!
By the front door
It's been so cold that I haven't changed much on my front porch lately. I just run right past it all to go inside and enjoy the warmth of the shop. Now that we had a few milder days, I had a chance to change things up a bit. Since St. Patrick's day is our next holiday, I grouped some green things together.

Hohner Auto Harp Harmonica
Indian emblem
Not sure exactly what this went to, but I thought it was interesting. It looks like it might have been a hubcap centerpiece. However when I researched Pontiac Chiefs, these did not come up. Maybe someone out there knows? This is about 4-1/4 inches in diameter and the back has two little metal spring clips to hold it in place.
