Cincinnati Modern show 2012 weekend (Status: a whole lot of wow)

I attended the Cincinnati Modern show on Saturday and it was packed with lovely pieces as well as people!   Any way, here are a bunch of pics with very little comment.

Harkerware place setting (Status: two for springtime)

I've been on an epic strikeout streak for about 3 weeks now; I have not found a thing in 85 thrift store/ junk shop/ antique store stops.  I found these two place settings of Harkerware "Springtime" about a month ago at the Volunteers of America in Grove City.

I melted for these Dairy Queen glasses (Status: odd numbers)

Found these in a north western suburb of Columbus called Hilliard.  Sadly, I saw this same set right before Christmas and there were six glasses (and the Goodwill wanted $36).  Something must have happened; I like to think someone threw a fit over the price and broke half the set.

Hey, wake up! (Status:another side table)

A day of mixed results, yesterday.  The first stop I made was at the Greater Columbus Antique Mall (aka: the German Village Antique Mall), where I nabbed this Heywood Wakefield 308G side table; the stops at 12 thrift stores, however, left the Bopfish nets totally empty.

Cheers to 10,000 page views (Status: Awww, shucks)

Sometime around 3:15 PM (eastern time) today my lil'ol' blog had it's 10,000 visitor.  Thanks a lot for visiting my blog and cheers; lets have some drinks in these nifty snowflake themed lo-balls.

Hi, my name is Bopfish and I am a blender junkie (Status: new blender for the collection)

An Osterizer Imperial Dual Range Cyclomatic 14 (say that four times fast).  Ya'll likes the vintage blenders, I know you do, the stats don't lie.
