I have been a dealer for more than 45 years. A native of New England, I started out, as most of us, as an avid collector of paint, Shaker, stoneware, textiles, folk art, and Staffordshire.
I was raised in Massachusetts and have deep antiquing roots there. I spent 10 years in Tennessee . I currently live in beautiful Pennsylvania. The move was a bit of a downsize so I am downsizing my own collections. I have been doing shows in the Midwest and returning to New England for new merchandise. I'm enjoying exploring Pennsylvania and the great antiquing opportunities it holds. I hope you will find my fresh finds and old friends to your liking.
I accept checks and Paypal. You may return items if they are not as described within three days of receiving them for a full refund less the cost of shipping and insurance. Pa customers without a resale tax number must pay an additional 7% Pa. Sales tax. I am glad to send more pictures and answer any questions. If you are looking for something other than what’s listed, please e-mail your requests.Thank you for looking and I look forward to hearing from you, Lyn

Nice lot of 2 different gauze pattern bunting. The one with stars is approximately 22”x 6 yards. Nice color a few stains but shows well Paper stuck to it but it could be spot soaked off. It is not as white as the other. It is more ecru color.The other is red white and blue stripes about 34” wide x 7 yards.Has a large stain but spot cleaning would probably work.I would not recommend washing because some of these early ones are not color fast. Could use a good ironing. Both display well.
