What is the strangest buy? - 11/12/2004 12:21:01 AM    flasherr Posts: 538 Joined: 5/7/2004 From: Abilene Texas Status: offline I work a local junk auction here every week. I am known for buying unique or different things at times. I have bout a huge set of horns they were 38" around and 6 feet long that was a conversation piece. Ive bought glass eyes that is a real eye catcher. there just no telling what I will buy if I like it or its cheap lol. Well, tonight I bought a head stone. It was for an 11 yr. old girl 1875 to 1886. It was purchased from a storage unit auction and then sold at tonight's auction. So what is some of your strange purchases?

Why don't you try to find out who ol' Walter was? Unless he was an ax murderer or something, I bet someone in his family would like to hear about your discovery. _____________________________ Norm Miller (in reply to flasherr) Post #: 4
