Indoor Yard Sale

[Crafty Angler]

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 -

Having seen this stuff in person, it's really cool

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...

Do you have a retail shop or is it strictly online? If you have a shop what is the address? (sorry I have been meaning to ask you this for years)

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
