I cleaned off the hutch in the dining room this morning and found this nifty serving tray depicting an old sailing ship.

The hutch after removing the items on the middle section and some of the "keepers" I found on it. One was a poem decorated with a flag that was a presentation to my mother from a civic group. Now all I have to do is the top shelves and the bottom cabinets.

My dad's fishing tackle box. Offered to cousin, he didn't want anything even though he said some of the lures may be valuable. I think what put him off were the lead sinkers.

I've started on the kitchen. I've never seen so many casserole lids that don't fit any of the bowls! I did find this bail handle pancake griddle I remembr my mom using when I was a kid. Also a Dr. Oekter tart pan made in Germany.

cast iron is highly collectible. I've never seen a flat griddle with a bail.

is it marked on the bottom?

when a collector really, really wants an item, the price of shipping isn't usually an issue.

if I were your neighbor, I'd gladly hep where I could....

deb,
I saw an article on MSN about a house that had not been lived in for 40 years. Someone took it over and ;posted pictures of the things they found. It sort of reminded of your photos.
