Niagara Falls

I'm sure everybody has either seen Niagara Falls or pictures of Niagara Falls but you probably haven't seen my picture. Go there if you can. It is awesome!

Huge Milk Bottle

I have a friend that collects milk bottles. We went to Canada several years ago to see Niagara Falls and there was the largest milk bottle I have ever seen. I don't think I ever shared this photo with my friend but here it is.

Penny Pot

You will probably never see one of these in a antique mall. I was lucky enough to find this one in PA. several years ago. The penny was dated 1943. I no longer have this piece but I have the pictures. Always will be one of my favorites!!

Pot with weird hole

The flower pot on the right has an unusual hole knockout. I have had this for several years and have asked several experts about why it is different. Usually this pot is fully signed Akro Agate Co. Clarksburg WV. I was told that maybe it was a transitional piece. Recently one was listed on EBAY and it was a lampshade on a vintage lamp. To me it makes sense. What do you think?

Souvenir Akro Tab Ashtray

I don't think this ashtray was ever used. No burn spots like others I have. Don't you just want to go to Salt Lake City and pick up an ashtray souvenir?

Akro Bowls

Probably one of the best looking bowls I have owned. Bowls are one of my favorite Akro Agate items and this one was the best!!

Crystal Lamp Shade

I'm not sure how many of the crystal lamp shades exist. This one passed thru my collection several years ago. I'm on the lookout for another one - I know they are out there.

Mexicalli Ashtray

If you know me I'm a sucker for Akro Agate bowls and decal pieces. This is my favorite decal piece for two reasons. First it is from Clarksburg WV the home of Akro. Second because it tells me that the Mexicali hats were marketed seperately as ashtrays. What do you think?
