he'd look good doing it..of course.

Rosewood . . .
I guess you're right -- boxy and crisp took off in the early sixties, arguably GM's finest decade for styling. That was the Mitchell period ? Round came back with a rush when the Taurus was born -- and the Porsche 928 was another milestone, as I recall.
Great finds, people. Keep 'em coming !

I spy an iron magazine (wood?) holder in the background behind the tiled table.....any idea who designed it??

yes
a metal wood loop. No idea, almost looks home made. I really should fill it with firewood rather than the clutter of newspapers to burn...note to self...

At the thrift store today I...
At the thrift store today I got a cast iron Japanese tripod planter, and a pair of Marshall Studios ceramic and walnut bookends. For $2.99, and $3.99.

The planter I found is 10.75" long. I remember bidding on one several years ago on Ebay, and seeing it end up selling for around $300. Just the other day I was thinking about it again, after I found a ceramic tripod planter, then today I turn the corner at the Goodwill and there it is.

I'm so proud,
Aunt Mark

I'm always envious of your items tchp, you have a good eye.
