Listing Information

This is the third sale we have done for Ed.  He was very proud of his enlistment in the Signal Corp in the US Army during the Korean War. After his time in the service Ed worked for Carnation Company in Waterloo, Iowa for 30 years delivering milk. When he retired, he then delivered flowers for Rainbow Florist of Waterloo, Iowa. He loved to go to auctions and fixing things. When Ed turned 92 he decided it was time to start liquidating his collections. He first started with his milk bottles and lanterns.  He loved talking to everyone about that sale and how he made a great investment so many years prior.  Ed celebrated his 95th birthday this year which turned out to be his last. He will be missed by many.  Ed enjoyed the items he collected. He was able to tell you when & where he purchased an item and sometimes how much he paid for the item.  The items in this auction are pieces he was fond of and was not ready to part with at the time of his two other auctions.  We really hope you find a treasure in the auction you can enjoy for years to come.
