Jewelry, Vintage Linens, Dishes and Lamps.. Oh MY!

Monday night I went to one of my favorite places… Strickers Auction in Gardner Kansas.

The red arrows are things I “won”.  Boxes of old linens, a green tote of papers.

strickers auctions

This is Jerry Stricker.. he’s a pretty cool guy.. and his

knowledge of stuff is unbelievable!

These arrows show more stuff I bought 🙂  The red arrows show some

silver plate and sterling flatware.  The green arrows show vintage linens,

Franciscan dinnerware, and the farthest arrow away is vintage clothing..

super cool vintage clothing I might add.. that my friend Bettye would love.

After buying outside.. we moved inside.  Here’s Ron Stricker (in the cowboy hat)

auctioning off a few baskets.

I wanted this lamp pretty bad.. but it sold for over $100.00.

I wanted these beaded flowers.. but I just couldn’t pay what everyone else

was paying for these…

I did get these Johnson Brothers Transferware dishes 🙂

Old pins, bakelite jewelry and a cigar box of men’s jewelry.  It will take me

awhile to go through this jewelry..

Strickers Auction is the place to be on Monday Nights

Strickers Auction is a great place to go and watch people. Oh.. and of course it’s an auction too.. so you can buy all kinds of stuff there. I think half of my house was decorated or furnished with stuff from Strickers.

This auction house is pretty unusual. They have two auction rings running

at all times. One on the outside and one on the inside.

Yes.. I bought some stuff in this area.. but the doofus I am.. I didn’t take

photos of it 🙁 There was a lovely Smith Pineapple Punch bowl that I bid on

and let go.. 🙁 I should have bid it up higher. It was perfect.

Hot Tub? Forklift? Dog Carrier? anyone? anyone?

Really they have anything you could ever want here.

This is the back room. I bid on that Jason telescope and the cattle head thing

(I didn’t win them)

Here’s a view from my seat (before the auction starts).

There’s Ron the auctioneer. He is one of the FASTEST auctioneers

I’ve ever seen. He’s ruined me for all others.

I hate sitting around waiting at an auction. With Ron, it’s always moving.

Anyone need a washer? I think they had 8 that night!

One of my favorite old signs at Strickers.. They have a disco ball too..

But I forgot to take a photo of that.

If you know me very well, you know I take photos of my food.

This is Tammy’s polish sausage.

Here’s #2’s Frito Chili Pie.
