This place is like a morgue. Has anyone made any great finds over the summer? [View all]

I'd love to brag about mine, but it's been a disappointing season. My hopes and dreams are pinned on an abstract painting from the 1950's with a signature I'm still trying to decipher. I've found lots of smalls for resale - paperweights, perfumes, studio pottery and glass. Last weekend I found 2 antique cabinet cards of military men in full regalia that I suspect are military academy cadets. I'll be sending a picture of them to a museum associated with the school I think they might be from. Last weekend I got a great buy on a couple of Charles Sawyer and David Davidson prints. I've always preferred them to Wallace Nutting and they'll be easy to sell. The hunt goes on. Church sales in the fall have always been winners.
