Out of the pages of “Ragged Dick”!
This week I surprisingly chose a piece with a great painted surface in an unusual form. There are 850 lots in our September 12th, 2019 online only auction comprising thousands of items. There are so many choices in just about every category imaginable. I love painted country items so this week my eye was drawn to a great green surface. So, what you might wonder caught my eye. Lot 1536 is a terrific small shoe shine stand. The diminutive round stool mounted to a shaped pine base with a cast iron foot rest built upon an oval platform. It has a nice all over wear to that green paint which makes for a charming piece. So, log in to Bidsquare.com and look up the Pook and Pook Auction on September 12th and see what strikes your eye. Maybe you can buy the shoe shine stand and start up a little side business, I know my shoes could use it!
