Vintage Prairie Auctions

As hard as it is for me to utter the words, I must. It's not *all* about antique wood furniture. (I know, I can't believe I said it either).

Sometimes, it's about cookware and dishes and Pyrex!

Quality cook are is another timeless investment. This estate includes a collection of All-clad cookware (see photo), a Faberware electric skillet, vintage WearEver, and more.

I have an ENTIRE table devoted to Pyrex of many varieties! (Much more than pictured.)

And back to the wood furniture...the other picture features an 8-foot 6-inch long table! It kinda goes on forever. I think it would make a great bench for an entry hallway.

Story Time (with Relevance):

A good friend of mine moved his 20-something daughter into an apartment as she starts her post-college career. He mentioned that he'd be shopping for furniture next, and I pointed out that my next sale (June 1, 2, and 3, 2018) is full of awesome serviceable furniture! He said (and I quote), "Yeah, but I think your furniture is a little *old* for my daughter." With as much chagrin as I could muster, I shot back, "There's a *reason* it's OLD. It lasts FOREVER!"

It's true, isn't it? For those of us who own antique furniture, we treasure it; we adore it; we care for it; we move it from home to home, career to career. And, it serves us dependably, decade after decade, with character and appeal.

Join me on June 1, 2, and 3, 2018 at 202 South Pennsylvania in Howard Kansas and find your newest *old* treasure. Serviceable dressers (these guys don't just belong in the bedroom anymore!); solid wood bedroom sets; buffets; tables; chairs; marble and walnut; oak; maple; all beautiful AND functional!

Happy First Day of Spring! A glorious day it is!

Thank you to everyone who visited our Estate Sale in downtown Eureka. We were happy to see you all, and I hope we made a lot of folks happy! I know we had a lot of fun visiting with folks, and bargaining with folks, and watching folks load up and go away smiling! (By the way, that tall guy who helped so many of you load up....he's my son. I hope he treated you all well. :) )

So many of you asked about items that do not sell in the on-site sale, and I want to make sure everyone knows what happens next. We will take most of the items and sell them online. There are specialty markets for most items, and I tap into them. It takes a little longer, but we are able to maximize sales that way.

My objective at Vintage Prairie Auctions is to earn the most dollar for my sellers.

And, if you are interested in selling items you've accumulated, here are some ideas:
Vintage Sewing patterns (pre-1980, preferably pre-1970)
Metal Advertising Signs (authentic)
Historic documents (authentic)
Antique Books
Antique Jewelry
Vintage Toys (metal trucks, metal toy sets, etc.)
And much more...

Let us know if you'd like any help selling items online. And we'll let you know when we're ready for another sale! Our location at 111 North Main in Eureka will make us easy to find! Make sure you "like" our FB page so you'll get future notices.

Have a great day!
