Retro CoMO

I know, I know.  I’ve been neglecting this blog.  Who knows what we’ve missed in the past few weeks?  But I will try to make up for it with this extra-long post and get back into things as we move into holiday season.

Complete Danish Dining Room Set.  Includes 8 chairs, a breakfront (hutch), buffet with glass on top, and a table with three leaves and protective covers.  Nice, and just in time for the holidays.  I like the detail on the back of the chairs.

$500 in Boonville.  Here’s the link: Complete Dining Room Set.

Vintage 50s Hotpoint Fridge.  In working condition.

$200 in Jefferson City.  Here’s the link: Vintage 50′s Hotpoint Fridge.

1950s Frigidaire Electric Stove.  Working condition.

$300 in Perry, Missouri.  Here’s the link: 1950s Frigidaire Electric Stove.

Formica Table.  Chrome and formica kitchen table with leaf included.  Seller says it’s in excellent condition.

$45 in Sturgeon (20 minutes north of Columbia).  Here’s the link: 50′s Dining Table.

Danish Chairs.  Burnt orange fabric with minor wear and tear, says the seller.  You could have these reupholstered.  You could even do it yourself if you were so inclined.  I like the legs and the tufting.  Seller says that they swivel and rock.

$50 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: Burnt Orange Swivel Rockers.

Wicker Fan Chair.  I love these, but the evidence of my love is well-documented.

$25 in Centralia (about 20 minutes northeast of Columbia).  Here’s the link: High Back Wicker Chair.

Three Piece Rattan Settee.  I really like this.  Made in the Philippines in the late 1940s with woven seat, nice condition.  No cushions, but they should not be too expensive to replace.

$95 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: 1940s Rattan Set.

Ashtray Stands.  The seller has a couple more in the ad, but these I liked.  $30 for the chrome one and $25 for the brown ceramic with the wire frame.

In Jefferson City.  Here’s the link: Vintage Ashtray Stands.

AMI Jukebox.  Good condition and works.  Plays 78 RPM records.  Weighs 238 lbs.

$800 in Moberly (30 minutes north of Columbia).  Here’s the link: AMI Jukebox.

Bell & Howard AutoLoad 8mm Projector.  The ad does not say if it works.

$25 in Boonville.  Here’s the link: Bell & Howell Movie Projector.

Four Mid-Century Chairs.  Black leather seats and backs, and the seller says they’re in excellent shape.  The price still seems a bit high to me.

$325 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: Four mid-century Danish chairs.

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.
