A bit about vintage...Most items are used as they are 20-50 plus years old. Sometimes items can be found that have been stored for years and have remained somewhat pristine; others have been gently used and may bear the signs of this. Some may be downright shabby from years of use or neglect, but this patina of age can buy add to its charm. All items are described accurately and photos are provided to illustrate.
