Antique Newspapers – First days of WWI - Amazing.
Aug. 10-12-13, 1914. The First World War was only days old as the huge German Army marched through Belgium and into France.

It’s interesting that an Atlanta newspaper so far from France would be so dominated by the events three years before the U.S. entered the war. Newspaper coverage was how...

ANTIQUE TOYS - TABLE CROQUET – Milton Bradley –C.1910.
We are not experts on old games, but this one is very old and looks like it's from the 1910-1920 era. The clothing and hairstyles of the people shown on the box seem to be from that time period.

Antique Oak Box – Maybe for Glass Negatives.
This is a sturdy little solid oak box with its original solid brass handle. Fine, tight dovetailing. Looks to be Circa 1890-1900. Size: 9 1/2" wide x 8 1/4" deep x 10 1/2" high to top of handle.
We’re not positive what it was for. One theory based on the very thin slots is that it held glass photography plates or magic lantern slides. There are old handwritten numbers...

ANTIQUE RAILROAD CAR MIRRORS - PAIR - C.1900.
Gorgeous wood mirrors that were originally built in to a very fine railroad car, most likely a private car. The wood is solid walnut and burl veneer. There is gold edging on the trim. Superb craftsmanship. The mirror glass is old and worn. It could certainly be replaced, but the wear adds to the pieces in our opinion.
Size: 37" tall x 18 1/8" wide x 1 1/4" deep. ...
