Exhibits Library auction will offer crafts, antiques By CAROL WALL The stuff that makes dreams come true will be up for bid this July in Dallas. If you've ever wanted to own a Lou Holtz football, surround yourself with the implements of a simpler age or just get a good bargain, the Back Mountain Memorial Library Auction will be the place to go. From July 8th to 11th on the library grounds in Dallas, you can find a myriad of new, old, unusual and one-of-a-kind for a great price. And thr proceeds help support a valuable community resource. “This is a great community event,” says this year's chairman, Bill Jones. “The Back Mountain Library is the third largest library in the county and people from all over the Wyoming Valley support it with donations of new merchandise, antiques, handcrafted items and other valuable contributions.” Known as one of the oldest events of its kind in the Northeast, the ‘Back Mountain Memorial Library Auction features nearly 1,000 varied items that attract 10,000 people over the four days of bidding. Jones expects a treat deal of excitement to come from novelty items, such as the football autographed by Lou Holtz, collected for the event. A special booth featuring hand-made crafts will be a new addition to this year's auction. “We've added this specialty booth to focus on the talented artists and craftspeople of our community,” syas Jones. “The hand-made items will be sold for the suggested prige by the artist.” Two unique items that will attract browsers are teddy bears and Christmas stockings which blend the lines between new and old. Larged and small teddy bears made from the material of antique chenille bedpsreads wil be auctioned throughout the four days. The bears, which range in size from a few inches to over 20 inches, will thrill small children or any teddy bear aafficiando. Crocheted Christmas stockings, made from antique linens and lace, will also be aucitoned during the event. “We decided to collect antiques with a decorative theme this year,” explains Julie Savage, who along with Karen Boback and Hope Chollack gathered the items. “Our pieces mainly fall into four categories: the kitchen, the garden, the den and children’s items. We plan to group them together that way, too, so that people can see how they can be used.” One of the most valuable items going to the block will be a Hoosier Cabinet dating back to the Roaring ‘20's. The large kitchen cabinet was the ideal place for the weekly bread-making ritual with its self- contained flour sifter, porcelain counter and bread tin. Adding to the beauty of the piece is its fine condition and the rarity of the find. Also among the items collected are high-backed garden benches, doll beds, numerous prints and mirrors and a cherry secretary's desk. Of comical interest are the local antique souvenier items the FROM A SIMPLER TIME — This unusual Hoosier Cabinet from the Roaring ‘20's will be one of many antiques for sale at the Back Moutain Memorial Library Auction July 8-11. (Photo by Michael Touey) group collected. “We've got a small glass drinking cup that's stamped ‘Dallas Fair 1903’ on the bottom of it,” says Savage, “and several old postcards from the Dallas /Harveys Lake area. We'll keep looking for more until the day of the auction.” > You can enjoy browsing and bidding in the shaded country atmosphere surrounded by local food vendors. This year’s fare includes potato pancakes, lemonade, ice cream and home-made pies. Several local merchants will also have tents at the auction for direct sales of their merchanidse. : Don’t miss an opportunity to spend a few sleepy days in July making one of your dreams come true.
