Well here I am up to my ears in "Tech Week" of
"Annie Get Your Gun" Patricia, Jennifer, and I made a trip down to Bowie to see what treasures we could find for the show and for our selfs!
Picked up these really cool somewhat "Deco" hardware back plates for $6.00 for the pair. These will provably end up being used in the new room at the Casablanca.
Patricia found this "Miss America" Sheet music for $1.00 It's from 1956, and is the "
Here she is! Miss America" anthem they play after the coronation each year. Hmmm I think we might change a few of the words and use it for our
"Miss Casablanca" contest.
Another Set of hardware, also $6.00 I think they will clean up nicely!
The girls made fun of my for this purchase! Its a small and broken plastic "topiary" I think its from the 50's it looks like it should be, I don't have any definite plans for it but at $1.00 why not!?
The catch of the day was this 12 piece green Pyrex set for... $4.00! Two dinner plates, four salad plates, three cups and three saucers. I'm ashamed to say I took this away from friend Jenn, I pointed them out to her and then decided that I could use them! Haha Sorry Jenn!
Well that's it for now! Back to work, slaving away on the stage...
See ya!

Love it all, but if it were me I wouldn't touch those doorplates--they look so good all shabby and chippy. That plastic plant looks more like bonzai to me but whatever, it's wonderful and I would've scooped it up in a minute! The dishes . . . to die for!!!!
Well of course I love the Pyrex dishes. Those are pretty hard to find in good condition around here. Although it wasn't part of your blog, I also love the Premium Saltine tin. My BFF is just starting to get into the old stuff and I bought her one at a garage sale for a quarter! I believe I may be creating a monster.

Holy, major score on that Pyrex.
Wow, you made quite a haul! I'm going to have to go to Bowie one of these days.

I found three turquoise bowls a few weeks ago, I was pleased that they were only $2.50' you've got me beat!! Nice!!
It was fun visiting for awhile. Nice to return to Micks. K
