Indoor Yard Sale
It's my end of the year clearance - can't believe some of the schtuff I found squirreled away.
Gotta get rid of it - the wife's bills from her hospitalization and surgery over Thanksgiving are starting to appear in the mailbox, the holidays are coming and it's time to thin it out anyway.
Too much to list individually. Basically its:
Prints:
- Original framed Dentons, were $225 plus tax, now $125 - a very nice Christmas gift - or a personal indulgence for yourself. Already sold quite a few, the ones left are the Atlantic Salmon, the Hickory Shad, the Butterfish and another Small Mouthed Bass.
- Matted Denton Repros - I have the Male Lobster, the Tautog and the Bonito - they used to sell for $45 plus tax, now $20. Well done photographic repros, not ink-jets, 12x16 O.D. Also have the Male Lobster, matted repro in an 11x14 gold frame, $70.
- The historic Graves Point Fishing Club photo, I have two left unframed in 8x10 size, double-matted out to 11x14 - these were $90 plus tax now $70 even.
Also 2 16x20 framed Graves Point photos - no mat, flush framed large image, solid cherry frame, was $275 plus tax, now $150.
- A bunch of 8x10 framed prints, way too many to list, old bass stand and bass club photos, some were the original images in my avatars, etc, matted and custom framed, were $70 plus tax, now $40 even.
- Matted only versions of the same, were $35 plus tax, now $20 even.
- Last, 2 11x14 framed prints "Gamefish of the New England Surf", a small size poster done by Mrs Crafty, was $150 plus tax, now $80. One gold frame, one black. Also have it in 16x20 if I can unearth it. It'll be reduced to $125.
Plugs - A box 'o' plastics and tins - you name it, I've probably got it - $4 to $7 each, some NIP.
Other assorted schtuff - Porter Cable low sped random orbital sander, ex. cond., $60, an unused brad nailer, $40, etc etc. -
Anyway...there's no real date, just PM me and you can swing by the ranch to take a look. Prefer cash but could be open to an interesting trade - yeah, I have a tackle problem... 
If ya can't swing by, I should be able to post photos of any item
Thanks, you guys - |

Thanks, Cap - the framed pieces are actually nice enough to get permission from your significant other to hang them in the house too -
I always said you could never have too many fish pictures in your home - and then I found out my bride actually agrees with me.
Boy, was that a revelation - I was right!
Well, once, anyway...  |

Jim - I had a shop (past tense), a mini-gallery off Lower Thames St here in Newport but it was closed in 2006 and the website was taken down with the closure of the business. I still collect and I'm working on a research project now that will first become an illustrated lecture  and then hopefully go on from there -
What I'm doing now is selling the rest of the print inventory that I had stored away - we moved into what was our business space and the stuff is underfoot, which is a shame - they're great prints and I hate to see them just in storage - I know there's folks out there who appreciate them. Right now it appears that these will be the last of them -
If you're looking for anything in particular, just PM me - I remember the SB article you sent to me some time ago and the info about your friend who does gyotaku - sounds like we have similar tastes -
Anyway, if you get over to the mainland give me a shout - I still have the prints hung in one part of our space until they're sold - web shots just don't do them justice -
Thanks  |

Crafty - any more of these available?
- Last, 2 11x14 framed prints "Gamefish of the New England Surf", a small size poster done by Mrs Crafty, was $150 plus tax, now $80. One gold frame, one black. Also have it in 16x20 if I can unearth it. It'll be reduced to $125.

I do have a couple left, Mike - one 11x14 framed in black and I know I've got the bigger 16x20 which would be framed in gold -
I found the frame for the 16x20 - now all I gotta do is unearth the print. Not a big deal, I think I know where it is, but I have to ask Mrs Crafty.
She put a lot of the stuff away - women have a different... approach to storage, if you get my drift... 
It's safe - but gotta ask her where - let me know if you want either one - thanks. |

Crafty - definitely interested, could you post pics of 'actual' product? Working on a basement project involving outdoor/fishing related pictures. etc.. Then we can set up a time and I can take a ride down your area and we can meet up in person. Txs. |

Mike - The Gamefish print is the same one in the middle of the three in the very first post - don't have a photo of the black frame, though for the 11x14 - it's a custom wood frame, not aluminum, and 1 3/4 deep x 1 1/4 wide and looks great, sold quite a few in that one -
The gold frame for the 16x20 is pictured below, same print, larger version -
Also have a ton of fishing related stuff, bass stands, natural history fish prints, etc etc - way too much to list - let me know and I'll PM ya my cell if you want to come down to take a look - no obligations - mostly 40 to 50% off w/ no tax since the biz is now closed.

Thanks Bill, glad you liked it - I've been looking at that photo for I don't know how many years and I still notice stuff I hadn't thought of - probably the single most important photo in striped bass fishing, historically speaking...
There's only one photo more important and it hasn't been seen in over one hundred years - and I'm hot on the trail... 
Anyway way, I do have several bass stand photos - the one you'd probably like is the side view of the JP Morgan's Graves Pt clubhouse, taken around 1890 showing both stands - forgot I even had it until my wife unearthed it -
Also have a couple of others - one of the GP SE stand, and another from a postcard around 1912 showing a man in suit and tie holding up a respectable bass by the stand that was right next to GP -
and another illustration done by one of the Vanderbilts showing the gaffer walking out on the SE GP stand from an old Newport book -
I'll muck around in the hard drive here and post 'em for ya in a while - they're also matted, 5x7's on an 8x10 - |

Hi Bill - I was working over the weekend and needed to check first to see what was left on the GP clubhouse photo -
Got 2 left that are matted and custom framed, were $70 plus tax, now $40 even.
Also have 1 left that is the matted only version of the same photo (single matted) - it was $35 plus tax, now $20 even.
The image is below, also shown is a sample of the frame stock for one of the framed ones, dark walnut, one of the nicer ones I used for smaller prints - the other is in a wide black frame that looks like egg and dart molding - no pix of that frame style -
Add $5 for shipping - thanks - |
