How's this for gett'n in trouble...Alameda P/U...c1908 6ft photo
Picked up this photo last Sunday at the Alameda Point Antique Fair...That's 69" inches of original wavy glass...nervous getting it home...Emailed photo restorer before I even left...Essentially said so much yellowing couldn't guarantee getting it all out but could probably improve it...i.e. lighten it up...for ball park $2,500.00...was figuring around $1,500.00...Was planning to resell it but wouldn't mind keeping it...at's a lot of real estate though!
Also got this circa 1870 billiard scorer..and the billiard tin below...tin worn but it was $10.00
Also found out after the fact a gal wrote a book on the Treadwell Gold company...Looking into it it was the world's biggest mine of it's kind until it flooded...I ordered the book...on it's way.
