Flea Market Finds
iron with bird
By Dan D’Imperio
Q. At a local market | purchased a charcoal-buming
iron having a figure of a bird perched on top. When was this
style popular?—Ida, Long Beach, Calif.
A. From the 1880s into the early 1900s, work weary
homemakers accomplished their pressing chores with char-
, coal-buming irons having figual fasteners. While these
various bird, animal and fish representations lent irons of
the period a whimsical appearance, they also served a util-
itarian purpose. It was their weight which kept the top
secure. Domestic and European makers fitted their irons
with such devices. A maker's name or patent date on a tum
of the century iron can help eliminate the wrinkle on >
Cg brow! Value guide: charcoal iron, bird figure,
10, $45.
Q. Can you assist me in evaluating a small collection of
early radios?—Mr. E. T., Columbus, Ind.
A. Do you have a radio hidden in the attic? Then tune in
for some prices which might prompt you to rescue it from
gathering any further dust! Value guide: Atwater Kent,
M44, matching speaker, $85; Angelus, cathedral case,
$120; Crosley, Model 601, $65; Everready, table model,
1930s, $90; Kolster, 6 tube battery, $60; Philco, Beehive
type, 1930s, $80; RCA Victor Traveler, battery operated,
1920s, $120; Zenith, Big Dial, $80.
Q. I'm an avid collector of Hall China Company teapots.
When were they introduced?—Rita, Seaside Heights, N. J.
A. Looking for a find with a future? Then permit me 10
introduce you to the diversified line of Hall china teapots.
The Hall China Company, of East Liverpool, Ohio, was
organized about 1903. In 1920, the company officials
wisely decided to intorduce a line of teapots. They met
with warm public acceptance, appearing in a variety of
colors. Since each teapot bore a special design, collecting
them can prove to be a never ending source of surprise.
Value guide: Melody, Chinese red, $22.
Q. Would you please enlighten me about corkscrews
as I'm about to start collecting these oddities?—Tim,
Des Moines, lowa.
A. The corkscrew, that device utilized in drawing a cork
from a bottle, has been known for centuries. Figural ver-
sions existed during the 17th century. By the Victorian era,
designers captivated imbibers with some ingenious: mech-
anical models which often appear on flea market tabletops.
Some ornate specimens boasting mother of pearl, ivory or
sterling silver handles surfaced in the Art Nouveau period

CHARCOAL BURNING IRON
(1890-1910). As collectors became more aware of these
finds, they should prove somewhat more difficult to pry
loose from their owners! Value guide: corkscrew, figural
cat, silver, circa 1890, $55.
