It may be dusty, gross or reek;
It’s sure to sell if it’s antique.

And your antiques can be really old. Congratulations on your win. I see some in our shops that are hardly older than I. Love Joyce

Like the cliche, "Good things come in small packages", there should be one that goes, "Valuable things may come aged and covered with dust " LOL! My best wishes for a win, Jack. But then you never need best wishes as you are that good, always! xxAnnalise
