This is a neat item – a sewing basket made by Hommer Manufacturing Company of Newark, N.J.!

It’s in wonderful condition and still has the insert tray – super collectible and a useful item.

Thank you for visiting Lin's Antiques at Cyberattic!

These two Hommer hanky boxes are the same pretty “marbleized” green color! The original ribbons have been replaced with small tassels.

Both handkerchief boxes are in wonderful condition with only evidence of “use” being minor wear/scuffs on lids.

Very nice!

This listing has two Hommer hanky boxes in pretty “marbleized” pink color!

Both are in wonderful condition with the usual scuffs on lids.

These hanky boxes are becoming more and more difficult to find – all the hanky boxes we have listed have been a part of my hanky collection.

This listing has 8 of the smaller (C-6) size replacement bulbs! They are in the original “GE Christmas Tree Lamps” box and appear to have never been used – I tested them and all work. Neat items!

Another neat C-6 bulb listing! These are also General Electric and are in original box. There are a total of 11 bulbs (prior owner put in an extra), they’re a pretty red color, and they all work!

This listing has a super nice McCoy tee pee cookie jar! Marked on bottom: McCoy, USA, 137. The jar has excellent cold paint and is in wonderful condition – there is a ¼” slice type glaze ding on bottom edge of lid (not visible when on jar and not very noticeable when off) – that’s it! As with many of McCoy’s cookie jars, the lid does not fit snugly. This is a very nice cookie jar and an excellent addition to any collection!

This listing has an excellent condition set of bubble lights -- they just do not have a box! There are 8 lights – including a difficult to find purple color and 2 clear color ones – all work great.

They have glass “slugs” instead of chemicals so the liquid is not at all cloudy.

The bubble lights are Noma productions. They are in a Paramount bubble light cord -- done so by a prior owner as this is the way I purchased them at an Indiana estate sale.

I purchased this lovely unusual necklace many many years ago at an antique shop in Ohio. I never wore it; it has been in my jewelry box all these years and now it’s time to share!

Necklace measures 16 ½”, it has green apple color glass beads and round glass bead “dangles” that resemble apples -- cherries -- berries?? One or two of the dangles are missing but as you can see in photo, it doesn’t detract. However, it is less than perfect and I have priced accordingly.

I purchased this little booklet many years ago at an estate sale. It's an advertising booklet for Old Reliable Coffee and it has amusing and charming little verses on each page that extol the virtues of cleanliness for good health.

There are 10 pages with verses, 2 pages “Coffee as it Grows” and the back page is about Old Reliable Coffee.

Booklet is in very good condition with some storage/use evidence on cover.

This is a neat collectible and advertising item!

This listing has a lovely baby quilt!

It has embroidered kittens and puppies on white squares and is set together with a pink border.

Quilt measures 33 ½” x 47 ¼” and is hand stitched with very nice stitching.

It has no holes or tears but the seam binding edge is worn – not at all uncommon – it could be easily replaced or enjoyed/displayed as is.

This baby quilt has been hand laundered and line dried (by me) and is from a smoke free environment. It is ve...

This is an interesting nativity set – it’s made of chalk! The set is hand-painted and it is eye-catching due to the lack of detail/finesse on the pieces.

Mary’s head is too small and her arms and hands are too large.

Joseph’s proportions are okay except he has one large hand.

The kneeling wise man has large hands, the proportions on the other two pieces are okay.
