Pickin' in western Minnesota

#1

Post by Kotto »

Once or twice a year we make the pilgrimage from Missouri to western Minnesota, not too far from Fargo, North Dakota to visit Marion's mom & dad. We try to fit in a day or two hopping from small town to smaller town looking for antique and junk stores. The harvest was quite eclectic this time around, ranging from an uncleaned City Club cone, a nice IRTP Sheridan, Schmidt's and Budweiser "long openers", super clean Log Cabin tin (hey, the price was right), to some 1930s Syracuse, NY beer coasters. Not sure how the NY coasters wandered that far west or the Country Club glass found it's way that far north. Fun week, and total expenditure about $55 for the "pickins". Anyone have knowledge of the coasters? I don't recall seeing them before, but maybe they frequently show up at the east coast trade meets.

Happy hunting, John

That IRTP Sheridan is a beaut, John. Hard to find that clean.
