an auction first...

My husband always goes to the auction with me.  He mostly walks around looking at things, researching prices on his phone for me or hauls things back to the car as I bid away.  He's not there to buy, he's just my moral support.  I don't think he has ever bid on anything, well, until last weekend.  There was an amazing clock collection up for auction, at least 50-60 pieces I'd say, and Andrew Henry was quite taken with several.  Most of the clocks he liked went for higher than he was willing to go and some other lucky bidders took them home.

All except these two.

From the feet on this, I'm thinking mid-century.  It chimes, which I like, but Andrew Henry hasn't quite taken to yet...

This next clock is called a Jefferson Golden Secret clock by Roger Russell and was made in 1956.  

Mid-century modern at its finest.  

Now this one we might have to keep.

You can read a little about it here, if you're interested.

Those are the two pieces Andrew Henry bid on and won at the auction.
