Retro CoMO

Retro Coffee Table with built-in turntable and radio.  Is it really a coffee table or just a low credenza?  Either way, seller says the phonograph works and that’s rare in these.  Not that they can’t be fixed, but it’s nice that this one doesn’t need it.  Several pictures in the ad.

$100 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: Vintage Retro Coffee Table.

Baby Scale.  I posted one of these before because I thought it was interesting.  Then I saw a photographer use one of these as a prop for newborn baby photos, and I thought was on the cute end of the newborn-baby-photo-prop spectrum.  Has this one been painted matte white?  I’m giving it the benefit of the doubt and saying no.

$30 in Northeast Columbia.  Here’s the link: Antique Baby Scale.

Vintage Sleeper Sofa.  I like this green-gold vintage fabric.  It was very popular then.  Probably insanely heavy.

$50 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: Vintage Sleeper Sofa.

Vintage Table.  Formica table with leaf and six vinyl chairs.  If the chairs are in good shape, this is a good price.

$200 in Rocheport (about 20 minutes west of Columbia).  Here’s the link: Breakfast Table.

I have been so lax about posting to this blog for the past few weeks!  Here are a few posts from local Craigslists this week.

Barber Chairs!  You were just rewatching The Man Who Wasn’t There, and you were thinking of opening a retro barber shop.  Here are your chairs!  Vintage 1964, in great shape, super expensive, and they probably weigh three tons each.  So the fact that they’ll deliver within 100 miles of Rolla is a big deal.

$475 each (yikes) in Rolla.  Here’s the link: Barber’s Chairs.

Coffee Table.  This is almost certainly a reproduction, but it’s a classic mid-century design by Isamu Noguchi and would look pretty cool in a lot of modern homes.  More info about the design/designer here.

$100 in SW Columbia.  Here’s the link: Coffee Table.

Vending Machine.  I hesitate to post this because it’s missing the coin mechanism and the key lock, but it does get cold and the lights work, so hmm.  It seems expensive (and heavy) to get something like this if you can’t hit the button and have the soda drop out, but maybe it sounds good to you!

$250 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: Vintage Pepsi Vending Machine.
