Philco Stereo Console.  Seller says that the turntable works but isn’t sure about the radio.  I like the style of this one- the top is mostly solid and the stereo is accessed through the front rather than the top.

$25 in Vienna (40 minutes south of Jefferson City).  Here’s the link: Vintage Philco Stereo.

Tiered End Tables.  Nice clean style with tapered legs, but it’s hard to tell the condition.

$10 each or $15 together in Columbia.  Here’s the link: Vintage End Tables.

Loveseat Set.  This looks like one couch, but it’s actually two pieces.  Both are pull-out sofas.  The fabric is swell, but it’s hard to tell the condition or what the actual style is like.  You’ll have to push for more pictures or go see it yourself.

$100 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: (COUCH) Very Nice Vintage.

Heywood Wakefield Bamboo Set.  Includes couch, two chairs, coffee table, side table, lamp, and ashtray holder, though I would check on those because I do not think that Heywood Wakefield made lamps or ashtray holders, and I think this price is high.  I am not a HeyWake nut, though, so I don’t really know.  The upholstery is all matching vintage barkcloth.

$1500 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: Heywood Wakefield Set.

Pepsi Sign.  This gets into the gray area of what is vintage and what is not, but I don’t care what you say.  It’s my blog and I’ll do what I want!  It reminds me of arcade games and pizza and sodas with shaved ice, and now I want one of these signs for myself.  I would put it up in my kitchen.

$40 in Sedalia.  Here’s the link: Pepsi Sign.

Stereo Console.  Walnut cabinet with radio, turntable, and 8-track.

$150 OBO in Rolla (about 1.5 hours southeast of Columbia; Lake of the Ozarks Craigslist).  Here’s the link: Stereo Console.

Adjustable Stools.  Originally used in a dentist’s office.  They don’t exactly match, but that’s ok.  I like the industrial look and think they would make great barstools if you had a really masculine vintage minimalist thing going on already.

$35 each OBO in Kirksville (about 1.5 hours north of Columbia; Kirksville Craigslist).  Here’s the link: High Quality Computer Chairs/Stools.

Dresser Set. I love these!  The shape, the style, the condition- it’s all awesome.  Perfect Danish modern.  And they’ll hold a lot of clothes.  You’ll wish you had a mirror over the lowboy, but it doesn’t need to match.  Go creative and hang a bunch of hand mirrors above it in a pattern.

$250 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: Bedroom Set- 2 Dressers.

Bar Stools. There are three of them with the chrome and the white vinyl seats.  The vinyl appears to be in good shape and you can’t beat this price.  I like the detail in the seat backs.  These would fit with a lot of different kinds of decor.

All 3 for $15 in Jefferson City.  Here’s the link: Bar Stools.

Vintage Exercise Bicycles.  They’re cheap and I bet they have a smaller footprint than the newer ones.  I like the vintage style of them (especially the one with the big leather seat- I don’t know why) and I like the color.  They’ll work just as well as the new ones!

$30 in Kirksville, Missouri (Kirksville Craigslist).  Here’s the link: Vintage Exercise Bikes.

Kroehler Dresser.  Vintage blond wood lowboy dresser.  Seller lists the dimensions and says it is in good condition.  I like this style.  This is another credenza-y one that could be used as a TV stand without looking like it came out of your bedroom.  Or put your TV on top of it in your bedroom.  The possibilities are limitless.

$30 in Moberly (30 minutes north of Columbia).  Here’s the link: 8 Drawer Kroehler Dresser.

End Table.  The seller says that this is a slab of granite and weighs 175 lbs, which is crazy heavy for what look like thin tapered metal legs.  The seller also says that it rotates.  Weird!  Cool!  I like it.

$125 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: Modern End Table.

Kitchen Table.  Vintage Formica table with chrome legs.  Looks like a drop-leaf style.  Seller says it has no marks or scratches, and the price is good for this style, even without the chairs.

$40 in Jefferson City.  Here’s the link: Vintage Kitchen Table.

Table and Chairs.  These pictures suck, but the price is pretty good despite the apparent condition of the chairs.  Black vinyl and what I’m guessing is a fake woodgrain tabletop.  I still like these chairs even if they’re in bad shape.  Hey, $15!

$15 in Kirksville (from Kirksville Craigslist).  Here’s the link: Table and two chairs.

Kitchen Stool.  I love this yellow.  Have I mentioned that before?

$20 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: Vintage Booster Seat (Yellow)

Vintage Adult Tricycle.  It’s probably not vintage, but a new reproduction.  The price seems reasonable to me.

$150 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: Vintage Adult Trike.

Dinette Table.  This looks more like 1980s than 1950s, but it’s hard to tell from the photo.  I kind of like the black roses in a Goth sort of way.  Maybe this would work for you?

$50 in Edina, Missouri (east of Kirksville, about 2 hours from Columbia).

Here’s the link: Dinette Table (from Kirksville Craigslist).

Barrel Chair.  The last one looked older than I think it is.  This one doesn’t look vintage, but the seller says it was purchased by his/her parents in the 1950s.  The shape seems far newer than that, but the upholstery and wood don’t look like they’re in very good condition.  I would wonder about the condition of the foam used in the seat as well.  Scrutiny might be needed because the price seems way too high for something that would need that much work.

$199 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: Mid-Century Barrel Chair.

Fridge & Stove in Brookfield

A couple of items from the same Brookfield, Missouri, location posted on the Kirksville Craigslist.  Proceeds benefit the Linn County Historical Society.  Local pick-up only.

Coldspot Refrigerator.  Does not work, but the seller thinks it could be fixed.  I think the price is high for a non-working fridge, but maybe you can use it for something interesting.

$100 in Brookfield.  Here’s the link: Vintage Coldspot Refrigerator.

General Electric Stove.  Works (except the oven light).

$150 in Brookfield.  Here’s the link: Vintage General Electric Stove.

Kirksville and Columbia Craigslists

There are some new things on local Craigslists this morning!

Metal Lawn Chairs.  Rough shape but a few cans of spray paint, and you’re in business.  This is a pretty good price too.

$30 in Kirksville.  Here’s the link: Lawn chair rockers (on Kirksville Craigslist).

3n43m93p65O25R95S29ak070b320396551e05

Chrome Table and Four Chairs.  It’s hard to tell what kind of shape the upholstery is in.  For this price, it better be pretty good.

$150 in Jefferson City.  Here’s the link: 1950′s Style Kitchen Table.

Patio Set.  These might be a little newer than my style, but I like them.  They would go well on a 1960s style patio after they’ve been cleaned up.  I’ve even heard that you can get these professionally redone with powder coating, but you’d really have to be in love with them for that.

$50 in Kirksville.  Here’s the link: Two Chairs and Table (on Kirksville Craigslist).

Hope you’re having a great fall week!  It’s been pretty so far, but it’s supposed to rain for the next few days.
