Two Wonderful Windsor Chairs in Great Surface:
Early Trade Sign, S. Miner 1821-  This sign came from a Pennsylvania estate.  The construction is all mortise and pegged with wonderful hand wrought hardware on the top.  There are remnants of Putty colored paint on the frame.  As you can see there is an eagle on one side and a plow on the other.  The paint blacklights fine, but my guess is that there has been some touch ups over the past 100 years.  The sign measures (excluding attaching hardward) 44" by 25".  SOLD
New England Walnut Queen Anne Swing Leg Table, circa 1740-1760-  Directly from the Estate of Daniel and Jan Olmstead, former Antique Dealer and Auctioneer, this table is in excellent overall condition.  The top is slightly oval and mounted on a wonderful base with shaped skirt and ending in padded foot, cabriole legs.  Old refinish on the surface.  Dimensions of table open: 51" long by 48" wide by 29" tall.  SOLD
