ABOUT THE CO
VER
COVER
We can’t think of the “Wild
West” without the saloon
coming to mind. The very
term “saloon”, brings up a
picture in our minds of an
Old West icon, complete with
a wooden false front, a wide
boardwalk protecting us
from the dusty street, a
couple of hitchin’ posts, and
the swinging doors brushing
against the cowboy as he
made his way to the long polished bar in search of a whiskey to wet his parched throat.
Saloons served customers
such as fur trappers, cowboys, soldiers, gold prospectors, miners and gamblers.
The first saloon was established at Brown’s Hole, Wyoming, in 1822, to serve fur
trappers. The popularity of
saloons in the nineteenth-century American West is attested to by the fact that even
a town of 3,000 residents,
such as 1883’s Livingston,
Montana, boasted 33 saloons.
Many of these establishments
remained open 24 hours a
day, seven days a week.
A saloon’s appearance
varied from when and where
it grew. As towns grew, the
saloons became more refined.
The bartender prided himself
on his appearance and his
drink pouring abilities. Early
saloons and those in remote
locations were often crude
affairs
with
minimal
furniture
and
little
decoration. A single woodburning stove might warm
these establishments during
the winter months.
By way of entertainment,
saloons offered dancing girls
dressed in somewhatrevealing strapless dresses
with feather boas, some of
whom occasionally or
routinely
doubled
as
prostitutes. Many saloons
offered Faro, poker, brag,
three-card monte, and dice
games. Other games were
added as saloons continued
to prosper and face increasing
competition. These additional
games included billiards,
darts, and bowling. Some
saloons even included piano
players, can-can girls, and
theatrical skits.
When we think of the
saloon we all have warm
memories of the Western
classic , Gunsmoke, with Miss
Kittie and Marshall Dillion at
the Long Branch Saloon.

VENTURA FLEA MARKET
Let me say first … I hear
what you’re saying & I agree
with some of your predictions
for the future. I say some, in
part because of my recent
personal involvement in a
couple of voting issues involving the general public. I
have seen first hand the
power of corrupt spin
coupled with ignorance, and
now better understand the
importance of full disclosure
and accurate information.
Full
disclosure
and
accuracy are foregone
conclusions in the private
sector, but are sometimes
masked by public-issue
proponents to get votes. Soo-o-o make the time to get
involved. Talk to your
elected and appointed
officials and if you agree with
their thinking, work to keep
them in office and vice versa.
You have the ability to
make things happen for you
instead of letting things happen to you. Gather all the information you can about any
subject that affects you, and
about which you need to
make a decision. Use your
entrepreneurial experience to
review the facts, and you will
find a way to make things
better. Keep in mind the notion you will lose ground to
those who are involved if you
are not.

The Mail Must GoThrough
The Story of the Pony Express
by: Bob Brooke
“WANTED—young,
skinny, wiry fellows, not over
18. Must be expert riders,
willing to risk death daily.
Orphans preferred. Wages
$25 a week . . . .”
Half a million Americans
lived west of the Rocky
Mountains when this notice
appeared in a San Francisco
paper in 1860. Two thousand
miles of mountains, plains,
and deserts, broken only by
Indian trails, separated them
from the rest of the United
States. To link California to
the Missouri frontier, an adventurous businessman
named William Russell created the Pony Express.
San Francisco had become
the center of numerous mining camps after the California
gold strike in 1849. Pack
A plaque, commemorating the
100th anniversary of the Pony
Express in 1960, hangs at the

Even though this method was
slower, it was safer. However, the company that
handled the ocean-going mail
had a monopoly and charged
excessive fees.
B. F. Ficklin, general superintendent of Central Overland California and Pike’s
Peak Express Company
(C.O.C. & P.P.), owned jointly
by William H. Russell, William B. Waddell, and
Alexander Majors and the
largest freighting firm on the
frontier, forged a plan to create faster mail delivery between Missouri and California – the Pony Express.
Russell, who was in favor of
Country Side Antiques (AD,G)
St. Rd. 32 E.

Ficklin’s idea, decided to begin operations before receiving government support, a
move that his partners
warned him against. Earlier
attempts had failed miserably. The Indian menace was
more serious than ever. The
winter snows would make
the trails impassable. And
the Postmaster General had
said that mail delivery via the
Central Overland Route was
virtually impossible.
In their favor, the company
already had an ample number of way stations which
could be used by the Pony
Express. But west of Salt
Lake City, it would have to

construct new stations. Each
consisted of a cabin, stable
and corral, with at least two
men to operate them and
guard against horse thieves.
Even though failure and
sizeable losses seemed overwhelming, Russell eventually
convinced his partners to
support the venture. As soon
as they announced their
plans, hundreds of young
applicants
filled
the
company’s offices despite the
rigorous requirements for becoming a Pony Express rider.
Skilled horsemen and hunters, these youngsters were no
strangers to the hard life of
the frontier, accustomed to
dealing with Indians, self-re-
liant and resourceful. Above
all, the spirit of adventure
called to them.
To outfit the Pony Express
required 500 of the best
American horses – preferably
California mustangs–including 190 stock stallions for
changing the riding stock, 200
station-tenders to care for and
saddle the horses for the incoming rider, and 80 of the
keenest, toughest and bravest
of western youths to be the
riders. Stations all had to be
supplied with hay, grain and
other needed materials. It
took $100,000 in gold coin to
establish and equip the line.
In addition, the stations required about 400 men to
ward off Indian attacks and
maintain provisions and shelter for the riders and their
mounts.
Originally, Russell proposed that the government
pay him $500 per round trip
for two trips a week in both
directions. But he greatly
underestimated the costs involved, which actually
turned out to be about 15
times what he had calculated.
At first, mail cost $5 a half
ounce, but that was later reduced to $1.
Since the Pony Express messengers would have to depend on fast riding to escape
from Indian attack, Russell
limited each animal’s load
to165 pounds. This allowed
20 pounds for the mail, 25
pounds for the equipment
and 120 pounds for the rider.
Operations Begin
On April 3, 1860, the Pony
Express began operations
when riders left simultaneously from St. Joseph, Missouri, and Sacramento, California. On this first trip westward from St. Joseph, on the
edge of the frontier, the
Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad delivered mail from the
East which the Pony Express
would carry to California. Up
to this time, the mail had been
going to St. Joseph by boat.
The westbound rider made
the trip in 9 days and 23 hours
while the eastbound one

wore a distinctive costume –
a gaudy red shirt and blue
pants – and carried a horn,
which he blew upon approaching a station. On hearing the horn, the relay-station
keeper and his stableman
would get the rider’s next
mount ready. Every second
counted, as a change of horses
wasn’t to take longer than
two minutes. Riders, themselves, changed every 75-100
miles and rode an average of
10 miles per hour, completing
the entire 1966-mile route
through Kansas, Nebraska,
Colorado, Wyoming, Utah,
Nevada and California in
about 10 days. Only one mail
delivery was ever lost.
Russell based the locations
of the stations – 150 to190 of
them – on the distance a rider
and horse could normally
cover without exhaustion, an
average of 10 miles. Because
of this requirement, stations
weren’t always built in safe or
convenient locations. Sometimes, for example, grass and
water weren’t available
nearby, so it was necessary to
bring in water in barrels and
drive the horses some distance away to feed them.
As a rule, the home stations
had already been set up earlier as stagecoach stations.
Home stations – where a rider
finished his run needed to be
more elaborate. They had to
provide facilities for the riders, as well as offer the services of a blacksmith. The
men who did this work had
to be top-notch in their field,
for many of the horses were
half wild and needed to be

Taco Bell: A Brief Company History
By Robert J. Sodaro
Today, Taco Bell serves
over 2 billion consumers
every year in more than 5,800
restaurants in the U.S. Fully
80% of these restaurants are
owned and operated by
independent franchisees. The
Taco Bell story began in 1946,
ment worked and he opened
up a second location, and he
went on to build his own
chain named Del Taco. Between 1954 and 1955, Bell
built three Taco Tias. He also
had three Bell’s Drive-Ins, so
he built a small commissary
Taco Bell Chihuahuas (1999)
after the end of World War II
when Glen Bell left the
Marine Corps and opened his
first food stand in the form of
a one-man hot dog stand. He
called that business Bell’s
Drive-In. In 1952, he sold that
stand, and opened a new
place that sold hamburgers
and hot dogs. It was around
this time that, the McDonald
brothers had started their
initial unit, in an odd
coincidence, also in San
Bernardino.
Initially, Bell was worried
that two stands in such close
proximity would be a problem. Needless to say, as it
turned out, the competition
probably helped both of
them. Still, Bell wasn’t comfortable with the idea of a pair
of similar stands in the same
area so he began investigating alternative menu items.
As an avid Mexican food
take-out customer, he began
to experiment with tacos. To
this end he looked to open a
location in a Mexican neighborhood in order to make it
look like a localized store to
possible competitors.
As it turned out, the experi-
to serve the six places. Eventually, when Bell’s partner
was not in favor of expanding the Taco Tia’s, Bell sold
out so he could expand the
Taco Tia’s so he could grow
the way he wanted.
He moved to LA, and began
to do quite well. He formed
a partnership with four LA
Rams’ team members founding a chain called El Tacos,
which turned out to be gold
mines. In spite of the fact that
business was going well, Bell
found that it was tough for
him to have partners, and
share a dream. So he decided
to go out on his own again.
So he sold his share of El
Tacos and in ‘62 built the first
Taco Bell in Downey, CA. He
opened eight small Taco Bell
units in the Long Beach, Paramount and L.A. areas, which
are still operating today.
It was around this time that
franchising was becoming
popular so Bell began expanding his operation via
franchises. Kermit Becky, a
former L.A. policeman,
bought the first Taco Bell
franchise in 1964. It was his
successes that inspired others
WESTERN MAR
YLAND
MARYLAND

to tap into the growing operation. By ‘66 he had opened
his 100th restaurant in Phoenix, AZ. (He later admitted
hating the company practice
of numbering the locations.)
The company went public
in ‘69. Bell continued to helm
the operation until ‘75, when
he tendered his resignation as
Chairman of the Board. By
‘77 the company went international. In ‘78, Bell sold Taco
Bell’s 868 units, to PepsiCo,
Inc. Under the new ownership, the franchise really took
off and by ‘93 the chain had
increased to 9,707 locations.
In ‘95 Taco Bell along with,
the other two PepsiCo food
franchises (Pizza Hut & KFC)
joined forces under the management of PepsiCo Restaurant International (PRI).
Taco Bell launched its Web
site (www.tacobell.com) in
1997, which is also the same
year that PRI becomes Tricon
Global Restaurants, Inc., a
fully owned PepsiCo subsidiary.
Taco Bell Toys
Like all the other major fast
food chains, Taco Bell took to
issuing toys with its kid’s
meals. However, any discussion of Taco Bell toys has to
mention the Sylvester
Stallone/Wesley Snipes 1993
film Demolition Man. This
film took product placement
to new heights as not only did
Taco Bell issue a plastic cup
as a tie-in to the movie, but
during the course of the sci-fi
movie, Stallone’s character
(who had been revived in
2032 from a 1996 cryogenic
sleep) was taken out to a
plush dinner at a Taco Bell
and was told that Taco Bell
had won the fast food wars of
the late 20th century, and now
was the only restaurant;
something that the restaurant
no doubt sees as a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Some of the more notable of
these toys issued by the chain
have included the following

cartoon set was the Mask (the
cartoon was derived from the
hit Jim Carrey movie, which,
in turn, was developed off the
Dark Horse comic book). A
second mask set appeared
during the Summer of ’97.
With the release of Star Wars
Special Edition in early ‘97
Taco Bell kicked kid–meal
Batman & Robin Mr. Freeze
Cup (1997)
toys into the next strata with
a very elaborate set of Star
Wars Toys that—in coming
years—turned out to set a
high standard for other
chains. This set was followed
by a set of totally cool Batman
toys, tying into that that
superhero’s film. During the
summer of ’98, Taco Bell released a set of Godzilla toys
that proved to very collectable, even though the movie
itself wound up disappointing (Taco Bell’s TV commercials were probably the best
part of the Summer of
Godzilla, which probably
brought people into both the
franchise and the film, and
helped boost the collectability
of the toys themselves).
Taco Bell wound out 1998
by capitalizing on the runaway popularity of its Chihuahua spokesdog by issuing
a set of Talking Plush Chihuahua toys. Four different
plush talking Taco Bell Chihuahuas were available during November and December
’98. Priced from $2.99 to $3.99
with no other purchase nec-
essary, the six-inch plush toys
featured four different voice
messages and accessories
drawn from commercial favorites in the popular campaign. Voice chips with the
actual voice of the Taco Bell
Chihuahua activate when the
toy’s stomach was pressed.
Of course, the highlight of
the 1999 toy season was Taco
Bell’s set of Star Wars: Episode
I—The Phantom Menace toys
that were issued in conjunction with sister companies
KFC and Pizza Hut. In the
years that followed, the company continued to issue quite
a number of very interesting
and collectible toys.
Not, collectible, but certainly of note, on April 1, 1996
a full-page ad appeared in six
major American newspapers
(including The Philadelphia
Inquirer, The New York Times,
and USA Today) announcing
that the fast food chain Taco
Bell had purchased the Liberty Bell. The ad read in part
that the Liberty Bell would
now be referred to as the
“Taco Liberty Bell.” Needless
to say, many were not
amused, and by noon Taco
Bell issued a second press release in which they confessed
to the hoax, describing it as
“The Best Joke of the Day.”
The company also announced
that it would donate $50,000
for the upkeep of the Liberty
Bell.

Sourdough biscuits were a
staple of the cowhand’s diet
throughout the American
frontier. Sourdough was
made by filling a stone jar or
a small keg half full of lukewarm water, adding a handful of sugar, and stirring in
flour. The jar then was set in
a warm place, and within 48
hours, it became sour and increased to twice the original
size.
Upon arrival at their destination, the cook gathered
wood and built a fire in a
short, shallow trench, and
lowered the chuck box to
form his cook table. First he
worked flour and soda into
the sourdough, pinched off
egg-sized pieces, rolled them
into balls, greased them and
placed them in the Dutch
oven near the fire so they

Chuck wagon found on clemmwheelandwagon.com
ground a generous supply of
coffee in the mill attached to
the side of the chuck box,
dumped it into the pot, and
placed the pot on coals shoveled from the fire.
Meat preparation came
next. Usually a heifer was
slaughtered every few days,
and the quarters of beef, after hanging overnight to cool,
were packed in the wagon.
When needed, half a quarter
was unpacked and cut into
thick slices. A generous
handful of suet was placed in
several large skillets on the
coals, and pounded steaks
were dredged in salt and
flour and fried when ready.
Tin lids were placed on the
skillets to keep out the dust
and to keep in the steam and
ing over the fire was placed
on top of it. Hot coals were
then placed on top of the lid
to brown the biscuits. The
secret was not too many coals
beneath, and plenty above, so
that each biscuit had a deep
brown upper and lower crust
surrounding a soft, spongy
interior.
Good timing was required
to have everything ready at
the right time when the men
arrived with the herd. If the
cowhands were slow for
some reason, the cook removed the bread and meat off
the coals and placed them
near the fire to keep warm.
When the men arrived and
settled in to eat, all the steaks
were placed in one skillet and
all the fat in all the other skil-
lets was combined and made
into thick gravy called sop. A
pail full of dried fruit stewed
the night before was served
with syrup.
Another way beef was prepared was in the form of a pot
roast, made by dredging a
large piece of beef in flour
and placing in the Dutch
oven. When it was nearly
done, the cook added potatoes and onions when they
were available.
Hot cakes, or flapjacks,
were also staples in the cow
camp. Adding soda, a little
salt, and enough water to the
sourdough made it into a batter. Letting the batter stand
for half an hour in a warm
place caused bubbles to form,
which made the cakes lighter.
Syrup was made from the
dried fruit.
The time when the boss felt
the herd should stop to rest
and graze gave the cook time
to experiment and prepare
something unique he thought
the men would like. One of
these was beef and dumplings. When a young animal
was slaughtered, the cook
usually made the hands’ favorite dish, son-of-a-gun
stew. Each cook had his own
recipe.
If the cattle drivers had any
spare time, they sometimes
went hunting or fishing,
which gave them a string of
perch or catfish, or quail, prairie chickens, and ducks for
variety. The cook rarely felt
he had to provide dessert, but
he did occasionally make
bread pudding by soaking
cold biscuits in warm water
and adding sugar and raisins.
Fried pies or turnovers were
fairly easy to make, and delicious too.
Cowboy dishes varied with
the region, the season, and the
source of supplies. Ingenious
cooks devised new recipes
from what was available.
Despite the fact that cooks
were not dietitians, no hardier, healthier, more robust
men ever lived than the men
that were fed out of his chuck
wagon.

The Tri-State Antique
Market will mark 25 years of
operation when it opens for
the 2010 season at the
Lawrenceburg,
IN
Fairgrounds on Sunday, May
2. With nearly 250 vendors
showing at each of six
monthly sessions, the event
lays claim to being Indiana’s
“largest antiques and vintage
market.” Sellers include
estate liquidators, restoration
specialists, professional
wholesale and retail dealers,
and weekend hobbyists. The
generous mix of furnishings,
decorative
accessories,
architectural remnants,
primitives, vintage jewelry
and pop-culture memorabilia
offered at the Market
guarantees
“a
little
something for everyone.”
Lawrenceburg is conveniently situated in the southeastern corner of the state
where Indiana, Ohio and
Kentucky meet. The fairgrounds are located on US 50,
just one mile west of Exit 16
off I-275, making this an easy
drive from all points in the
three states. The facility offers paved walkways, shaded
grove areas, large open-air
pavilions and modern
restrooms. Over 125 of the
Market’s displays are located
indoors or under roof, so the
event is a truly “rain or shine”
gathering.
hours are from 7 a.m. until 3
p.m. Earlybird shoppers are
admitted one hour early before dealers are in place.
Parking is free, but an adult
admission of $3 is charged at
all times.
In addition to its traditional
schedule of shows held on the
“first Sunday of each month,
May through October,” a special two-day event at the Fairgrounds is planned for July 3
& 4 to celebrate the Market’s
silver anniversary season.
Saturday’s extra activities
will include set-up shopping,
a “road show” style appraisal

The owner of this coach is the Concord Monitor. The coach was in
service from Center Harbor to the White Mountains about 1866.
This splendid coach is on display in the lobby of their building at
One Monitor Drive, Concord, N.H.
coaches.
The beginnings of the Concord Coach came in 1813
when a young man named
Lewis Downing, a wheelwright by trade, arrived in
Concord NH, tools in hand
and $60 in his pocket. He
announced, “Lewis Downing
respectfully informs the inhabitants of Concord that he
has
commenced
the
wheelwright’s business in
Concord near Mr. William
Austin’s store, where he flatters himself that by strict and
constant attention to business, and the correct and
faithful manner in which his
work will be executed, to
merit the patronage of the
public. N.B. Carriages of all
kinds repaired on short notice.” By November he had
produced his first vehicle that
he called a ‘Concord’ wagon.
In 1816 he built a factory,
employing 12 or so workers
to produce all the wooden
parts of wagons and chaises,
including the body, which
Downing still needed a
skilled carriage maker, and he
partnered with J. Stephens
Abbot in 1826. Abbot Downing Company completed
their first coach in 1827. What
they built was a product so
solidly built that eventually
the demand had to be answered by establishing sales
& distribution offices in Boston, New York, Chicago, San
Francisco, and even internationally.
Coaches came in 3 sizes to
hold 6,9, or 12 passengers, although later models could
crowd as many as 20 inside.
They were made of white oak
and ash. Oak lengths were
sawed into the proper size for
spokes; hubs were made of
elm; and the curved bodies
were shaped from basswood.
Each piece of metalwork –
steps, railings, fittings, and
door handles was signed by
its maker. Landscapes were
painted on the sides, and lush
fabrics lined the insides. The
interiors were generally lined

was oftentimes possible,
weather permitting, for passengers to ride atop the coach
as well, if it was too crowded

more than 2000 pounds, and
was sturdy, and generally

7-12 and 1-6. That was accepted and not thought to be
severe or cruel. Boys were
taken into apprenticeships for
six years. Still, company ledgers show that these boys remained there for 40 – 50
years, and family names kept
recurring. It was a good
trade, and a well respected
one.
Over 700 Concord stagecoaches were in service before the company disbanded
in 1847, but later the son,
Lewis Downing, Jr., of the
merged with J.S. and E. A.
Abbott Company to form
Abbott-Downing Company.
They manufactured coaches,
wagons, and carriages until
1919, employing 300 people
to do so. All of the employees were male, except for one,
Marie Putnam, who stitched
every bit of leather trim and
all the seats for every stagecoach that rolled out of the
Concord factory for 30 years.
Fares for travelling by coach
were divided into three
classes, 1st – rode all the way;
places in the road; 3rd – had
to walk at bad places in the
road AND push at hills.
There was also stagecoach etiquette … When the driver
asked a passenger to get out
and walk, best not grumble.
If the team of horses ran away
with the coach, best stay inside - most of those who
jumped were seriously injured. Smoking, as well as
spitting leewardly, was forbidden.
Mark Twain’s Roughing It
covers the years 1861-1866,
ney by stage from St. Joseph,
Missouri, to Virginia City,
Nevada, and his subsequent
trip to San Francisco. He describes people he meets and
situations he encounters in
vivid detail, often in a language that is difficult to understand, but that is totally
funny and enjoyable.
If you have a spare
$150,000, you can purchase a
stagecoach on the Internet.
No kidding! We found several sites where they are for
sale. If, however, you would

housed in museums across

Georgetown
Antique Mall
Who would have believed
thirty-five years ago that the
Georgetown Antique Mall
would still be in business in
2010? Joann Sharpe, owner
and operator, sometimes referred to as the “mother of
antique malls” had never
seen an antique mall when
she opened her business on
Main Street with $5,000 of
borrowed money in 1974.
Things have certainly
changed over the years. According to Joann there are not
as many collectors willing to
pay a fair price to own anything that is just ordinary.
Dealers are required to seek
out the unusual at a cheap
price in order to make enough
to meet their monthly expenses. “We do not see as
many young buyers,” said
Sharpe. Dealers and auctioneers must create more business by educating the young
public about the beauty, rarity, durability, and desirability of antique items. If any
item or piece of furniture has
lasted a hundred and fifty
years, it stands to reason it is
well made. Not only that, but
you cannot put the beautiful
patina on new pieces that are
usually more cheaply made
and with less fine detail.
Georgetown Antique Mall
has survived through stubborn determination and the
fact that they have such a variety of things suitable for the
advanced collector, as well as
young couple on a tight budget. Four floors allow browsers to enjoy themselves as
they stretch their legs exercising through two buildings.
The mall is well laid out and
has rather an old-fashioned
appearance.
Historic
Georgetown,
where bourbon whiskey was
discovered by a Baptist
preacher, has great architecture, good restaurants and a
friendly atmosphere. It is
only about five miles from the

At 78, Joann Sharpe remains
active despite her age and the
adversities of the worst
economic setback that she has
ever experienced. Looking to
the future, she has hope and
believes that the antiques
business will survive. Now
may be the best time for
dealers
and
regular
customers to buy the very
best they can afford.

ORIC ROSCOE VILLAGE
HISTORIC
Experience life during the
1800s in this beautifully restored canal era town called
Historic Roscoe Village.
“Step back in time” in

a one-room schoolhouse.
The entire family can enjoy
hands-on activities such as
painting a wooden top, ink

candle dipping, tin punching,
designing a quilt square or
weaving. Housed in beautifully restored 19th century
buildings, the Shops of
Roscoe Village are sure to add
delight and intrigue to your
shopping experience. Relax
in one of our wonderful dining facilities and partake in
one of our exciting festivals
held in the village.

Antique Bottle
Show & Sale
The Saratoga Antique Bottle
Show & Sale sponsored by
the National Bottle Museum® in Ballston Spa, New
York will be held on May 22nd
this year. This annual
fundraiser benefits the museum and its programs, attracting antique bottle collectors and dealers from coast to
coast in the United States.
The doors open to the public
at 9:30 AM and the show
closes at 3:00 PM. General
admission is $3.00 for adults
and $1.00 for children aged 12
and under. Antique glass
bottles, pottery, stoneware
and related objects will be
available for sale to the public. All merchandise is provided by the sellers.
Like the National Bottle
Museum®, the Saratoga
Show and Sale highlights the
history, technology and artistry involved in creating
mouth blown bottles, which
are collected as historic artifacts. The event will be held
at the Ballston Spa High
School just beyond the intersection of NYS Rt. 50 & 67.
The mission of the National
Bottle Museum® is to preserve the history of America’s
first major industry, which
was the manufacturing of
glass bottles, mouth blown
individually, using a blowpipe and hand tools. Advertising items and numerous
artifacts used in the early industry will also be available
for purchase. The museum
benefits through the rental of
sales tables and from admission proceeds. Sales Tables
can be reserved by contacting
the museum at 518/885-7589,
or
by
e-mailing
[email protected].

Museum and its programs,

Historic Buildings in
Batesville Indiana
The small, quiet town of
Batesville, Indiana is not so
quiet these days as they begin their multi-million dollar
revitalization project. This
includes the $6 million redesign of Pearl Street and the
renovation of one of
Batesville’s oldest buildings
built by the Greeman Brothers in 1863. The building that
began as the American Furniture
Company
and
Batesville Cabinet Company
in 1879, and later merged to
form RomWeber Furniture
Company, is today being
transformed
into
the
RomWeber Marketplace, a
unique shopping experience
for tri-state residents.
The Marketplace will
ultimately house 400 dealers
with a distinctive assortment
of
antiques,
surplus
merchandise and packaged
food, all in a family friendly
environment. The factory’s
original hardwood floors,
brick walls, hand hewed postand-beam construction with
first-cut timber and plenty of
natural daylight from factory
windows characterize it.
Visitors from surrounding
metropolitan areas will find
a touch of the past with a taste
of small town charm.
Batesville is conveniently
located equidistant from
Indianapolis and Cincinnati
off I-74. The RomWeber
Marketplace hours of
operation will be Friday,
Saturday, and Sunday from
9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The
Grand Opening is planned
for April 9, 2010.
Tiffin Glass Collectors Show
The Tiffin Glass Collectors
Club will host their 25th Annual Glass Show and Sale on
June 26-27 at the Seneca
County School of Opportunity, 780 East County Road
20, Tiffin, Ohio. Glass dealers from several states will
join local and area dealers at
this popular glass show that
attracts collectors from all
over the United States.
The fine tableware and
decorative ware that was produced at the Tiffin factory
from 1892 to 1980 will be offered for sale along with other
quality glassware. The show
and sale hours are Saturday,
June 26, from 10 AM to 5 PM,
and Sunday, June 27, from 11
AM to 4 PM. The $3.00 admission is good for both days,
and children are admitted
free.
The club sales booth will
offer a limited edition logo
produced by Mosser Glass
Company, Cambridge, Ohio.
Sales will benefit the Tiffin
Glass Museum, 25 South
Washington Street in downtown Tiffin.
Highlight of the weekend is
the Saturday evening
banquet at T. J. Willie’s
Restaurant, 738 West Market
Street, Tiffin. Our guest
speaker is author David
Shetlar who will present a
program on stretch glass. An
auction of donated Tiffin
Glass items will benefit the
Glass Museum. Prepaid
reservations are required by
June 18.
The public is cordially invited to attend all activities
during the weekend. The
show and sale is located in a
handicapped accessible facility with free parking. Lunch
is available and door prizes
will be awarded.
Visitors are encouraged to
also visit the Tiffin Glass Museum. The adjacent retail
shop offers Tiffin glass and
other fine glassware for sale.
Extended hours of 11 AM to
5 PM will be observed at both
locations during the weekend.

Peddler Da
ys Ohio’s Historic
Days
The Hanover Township National Road
Historical Society along with
its corporate sponsor, the
Spread Eagle Tavern & Inn,
as well as other businesses
and citizens of Hanoverton
OH are joining together
again, this year July 10 & 11,
to celebrate America’s
beginnings
with
the
Plymouth Street Peddler
Days Festival. Hanoverton
lies in eastern Ohio on the
Sandy & Beaver Canal, which
connected Pennsylvania with
the Ohio & Erie Canal at
Bolivar OH.
Join in an American celebration on beautiful Plymouth
and Canal Streets in
Hanoverton. You’ll think you
stepped back in time. You
can take leisurely walks viewing beautiful homes along the
way, or enjoy the festival activities – crafts, antiques, music, food and historical reenactments.
Of course you must stop in
and see our friends Ray and
Joyce Carnes at the
Hanoverton Curio Shop on
Canal Street (US Rt. 30, the
Lincoln Highway). She’s
working really hard to promote Hanoverton and to
show visitors who come
downtown a good time. The
Curio Shop has 2 floors of
variety and nostalgia, including a bookshop, bottles, tins,
vintage sewing items, and a
year-round Christmas display, at affordable prices.
For more information about
Peddler Days call 330-2231583. To talk to a really nice
person, call Joyce at 330-2233009.
Yard Sale
The Ohio National Road
Association (ONRA) has announced the 5th Historic National Road Yard Sale Days.
The event begins Wednesday,
June 2, 2010 and will continue
through Sunday, June 6, 2010.
Whether you are looking for
antiques, household items,
furniture, toys, produce, or
clothes, you should be able to
find everything you want and
need.
Each year, along the yard
sale’s 227 miles in Ohio, the
participation rate has grown.
ONRA is hoping to make this
year’s event an educational
opportunity for the many byway travelers and sellers on
the Historic National Road.
ONRA members will certainly be traveling (and shopping) along the road. Look
for them to be passing out information concerning the historic treasures and splendor
of the road while providing a
fun five-day shopping extravaganza. The yard sale is
a great tool to draw attention
not only to the organization,
but more importantly, to the
National Road.
For more details concerning
the 5th annual Historic National Road Yard Sale Days,
please visit the website at
www.ohionationalroad.org,

“Antique America”
with Cheryl M. Keyser
Murfreesboro Antique Show
The Murfreesboro Antique
Show, now in its 43rd year, is
under new ownership.
Nancy and Michael Weaver,
who operate as Southern
Eagle Promotions, Inc. purchased the show last year.
“We have been in antiques
for 30 years,” said Nancy,
“and dealers for most of that
time.” Weaver specializes
primarily in silver flatware,
hollowware, and Victorian
plate. The couple also
handles signed estate and
modern jewelry, such as
Cartier. Over the years they
have helped promote smaller
antique shows and work with
charities to set up benefit
shows.
“We select and invite the
exhibitors, handle all the coordination, provide the location and logistics, and set up
the booths,” explained
Weaver.
For
the
Murfreesboro show, some 70
to 75 dealers will be coming
from as far as Alabama, Kentucky, Missouri, and North
and South Carolina.
“We have always had a full
show,” added Weaver. She
notes that previous exhibitors
are given first opportunity for
a booth, and then spaces are
open to other vendors. Last
year the show was visited by
Chris Mitchell of Antiques
Road Show, but said Weaver,
“This year he had a prior
commitment and will be unable to attend.“ But, she
added, “we do work with
him quite often.”
The Show features a variety
of merchandise. “There is a
tremendous amount of table
top items,” said Weaver,
“and a lot of country antique
furniture and fine English
furniture. All of our dealers
are happy to share information on the items in their
booths with other dealers and
the public,” she noted.
Some of her shows also feature a dealer-appraiser for
attendees to bring pieces to
for an informal evaluation.
The Weavers work hard to
involve vendors who are up
on current market trends.
“All antiques go through
phases of popularity, of
course, and that also affects
the resale value. Big chunky
jewelry and large rings for
women are in vogue now.
Antique furniture retains its
importance, especially the
more classic country designs
with clean lines, such as Tennessee sugar chests. Good
furniture is like good bones,
you have the basic structure
and can always recover a
piece to match any decor,”
she explained.
“Antique dealers are the
original recyclers,” she
laughed, “we are not just
turning green now.” She
stresses that if people are not
well informed about the antiques that interest them, they
should get to know their
dealer. “Ninety-five percent
of dealers know their merchandise well and integrity is
very important. If you visit a
booth and the vendor says he
or she does not know much
about a particular piece, at
least they are being honest.”
The Weavers have also
added another show to their
growing portfolio - the
Mountain Lakes Classic Antique Show in Clayton, Georgia, now in its second year.
“One of the dealers with
whom we work is Clint Alderman,” said Weaver. “He
specializes in Indian artifacts
and pottery.” Alderman, of
Alderman Pottery and Antiques, has been collecting
deep South Indian artifacts,
mainly from Georgia, Florida,
and Alabama, since he was
eight-years-old; he is now 29.
“There are a lot of Indian
artifacts in Florida, apparently that area was comparable to New York City for
many
ancient
Indian
groups.” He focuses on
items, such as knives and
spearheads from 7,500 B.C. to
2,500 B.C. “Around 2,500
B.C. the culture started to
change and the Indian groups
developed the use of pottery,
their spearpoints became
smaller, and the bow and arrow became more common,”
he explained. Alderman concentrates his attention on
river and field finds, but does

gests that people stay tuned
to the website to see what will
be happening. Ten years ago,
Nicoson recalled, the site of
the present-day Mall was a
soybean field. Now it’s
72,000 square feet, one level
steel structure, holds over
5,000,000 items which is why
it has been dubbed “A
Collector’s Dream.” There
are over 600 booths and
lighted cases, representing
over 300 dealers, containing
everything from rare antiques
to modern artisan creations.
We have a really good line of
jewelry from high end to
low,” noted Nicoson, “and a
phenomenal line of glassware
to the point that the compa-
jewelry section, and the
stained glass studio. Furniture is also a big draw for the
Mall.
There was major flooding in
central and southern Indiana
about a year-and-a-half ago,
recounted Nicoson, “and we
had a ton of people coming
here with their insurance proceeds to replace their household items. They came because they wanted to get
value for their money.” Vintage clothing also attracts junior and senior prom goers;
local schools find costumes
for plays; and college students stop by for signs to
decorate their rooms.
When Fisher-Price toys
throughout the year - March,
July, October, and December.
This year, with the anniversary, they will add another
one in May. On these occasions, customers receive a
10% discount mall-wide, unless an item is marked “firm
price.” And there are prize
drawings throughout the day
of items donated by vendors,
and, of course, $76 gift certificates. And if anyone needs
help or informal advice, the
19 employees on the Red Vest
Team are easy to spot and
ready to assist.
Betty Williams has been a
vendor at Exit 76 for about
eight years. She specializes in
the Old West look, such as the
work of Frederic Remington
and Charles Russell. “People
like to decorate with old
saddles, spurs, and lariats,”
Williams noted. She also has
graniteware, McCoy western
pieces, and many books on
western themes, including
Zane Gray.
Exit 76 also features a booth

of lamps “extremely reasonably.” And it holds periodic
events such as the “Bling

fast and furious, from the advent of television to the age
of space travel; everything
was exciting and new, and
seemed to be moving at break
neck speed. The street that I
lived on was tree-lined, with
fashionable three story brick
houses nestled together with
sloping front lawns and large
back yards that allowed for
gardens, grape arbors and
swing sets. The garages were
detached and lined the alleys
that divided the blocks and
offered a wonderful thoroughfare for bike riding, not
to mention the occasional
soap box race. We would
climb to the roof of one garage and begin jumping from
roof to roof from one end of
the block to the next, much to
the chagrin of our parents
and neighbors, but what fun.
Our world was contained
within this small patch of geography. Caddy corner to
our house was my school, and
across the street from the
school was the candy store
housing all the treats a kid
could wish for. A short walk
around the corner and down
a couple of blocks was our
church. Now if you wanted
a soda, or an ice cream cone,
the drug store was just two
blocks away as well and they
offered a visual delight of the
latest comic books. So, growing up in this environment
was not only safe, but it nourished our sense of discovery
and imagination.
As we began to expand our
horizons with every new television show, the backyards
and streets were transformed
into the wild west trails of our
favorite western show; one
day it would be riding with
Roy and Dale, the next we
were hunting down the bad
guys with The Lone Ranger,
and yet the next day it would
be singing the tunes of Gene
Autry. Television not only
provided us with the new
shows, it took us back in time
with the reruns of the western movies of the 1940s with
many of the cowboys from
these classic films recreating
their characters for the kids of
the 50s. I can recite the shows
as if they appeared yesterday,

course, Gunsmoke.
With the advent of television, the western was a staple,
as it had been with the motion picture. It was the quintessential story of America,
with the good guy facing and
standing up to the bad guy.
It was a story that resonated
with all of us kids and we relished wearing both the white
and black hat, as we rode the
trails of our backyards. As

NASHVILLE
BY: MICHAEL R. HURWITZ
It was special growing up in
the 1950s, or at least it seems
special to me now as I approach Social Security age,
but in reality, it was a time
that was unique to our country. The innovations came
MID CUMBERLAND TN
Hoppy, the next day the
Durango Kid. But everyday
we had our sidekicks, just like
our counterparts on television and the old movies.
My buddy was Jimmy who
lived down the street and
loved riding the range until
we heard our mother’s call,
summoning us to dinner.
And it didn’t matter the
weather. In the winter we
would bundle up and doff
our hats and off we would go
in the snow with our trusty
steeds in search of a gold
mine or the bad guy. However, summer was the best
time for all cowboys, the days
stretched into early evening
and we could play all day and
then have supper and then

resume our travels. At night
I would turn on my Hopalong
Cassidy night-light and drift
off imagining that I was out
west with all my heroes sitting around a campfire, listening to the sounds of a guitar and a western ballad. It
was indeed a time of innocence and simple pleasures.
It was a time that will never
be captured again, and it was
a time that disappeared too
quickly.
For me, I was always fascinated with the sidekicks that
accompanied my heroes.
They always seemed to be a
source of laughter and joy,
and they are worth remembering. One show that I alSEE “GOLD” Page 35

with
Andy;
“Wild…Bill…Hickok!!” then
the announcer would say;
“Starring Guy Madison as
Wild Bill Hickok.” Then you
would hear Andy saying;
“Hey Wild Bill…wait for
me!” And once again the announcer; “And Andy Devine
rable performance in John
Ford’s classic 1939 western
Stagecoach starring John
Wayne. After Wild Bill, Andy
would go on to host a kid’s
show that was unusual and
off-beat, Andy’s Gang, from
1955-1960, and when he died
in 1977 at the age of 72 he was
as his pal, Jingles.” Off we
would go galloping from one
adventure to another with
Wild Bill leading the way and
Jingles always there to break
the tension and offer some
comic relief. Andy would
begin each show by saying
that Wild Bill was; “The Bravest, strongest, fightingest US
Marshall in the whole west.”
The show ran from 1951 to
1954 with two hundred seventy one episodes. I don’t
think I missed a program and
when items were offered,
usually from one of the sponsors, the most prominent of
which was Kellogg’s Rice
Krispies and Sugar Pops, I
would save my nickels and
box tops to send away. My
most treasured item was the
five-pointed silver Marshall’s
badge, contained in a leather
holder, with the image of
Wild Bill and Jingles in the
center. With that, it was official, I was a deputy Marshall.
Andy was so memorable, the
voice, his size, a whopping
three hundred pounds, chasing around the west on his
horse, Joker. Actually he was
a well-respected character
actor in films with a memo-
honored by eulogies from
some of Hollywood’s biggest
stars.
Of all the great sidekicks,
the one that always brings a
smile is Gabby Hayes. For me
he is simply the quintessential western character. He
would appear in a get-up that
looked as if he had been
sleeping in it for days, baggy
pants with wide suspenders,
boots pulled up and scuffed
beyond recognition, a shirt
that was two sizes too big and
the trademark hat with holes
dotting its landscape and the
front brim turned up and
pinned. With a three-day
growth of beard and no teeth,
he looked like a gnarled old
curmudgeon, but turned out
to be an irascible, lovable and
faithful old friend, mainly to
Roy Rogers, in over forty-one
motion pictures. He was
there, riding the range with
Roy, on his horse, Calico, always in the horns of a dilemma, and always ready to
help out with his wisecracking comments and good nature saving the day. I remember him saying; “By
cracky…” and using the
word, “persnickety…” al-

Devine was a stalwart of motion pictures, and had the
most unique high-pitched
squeaky voice. The show be-
most in every movie.
He wouldn’t be with Roy
and Dale on their television
show, that chore was left to
Pat Brady and the Jeep that
he called Nellybelle, but in
my mind he was always
Roy’s sidekick and one of the
most memorable characters
in film and television. For a
time he had his own television show and I would tune
in each week to watch the escapades that he and Calico
would encounter. In later
years Roy Rogers was asked
to reflect on his old pal and
he described his arrival at the
studio each morning. It
seems that George, his real
first name, would arrive early
driving a Bentley automobile
and would be dressed impeccably in a tailored tweed suit,
freshly starched shirt opened
at the collar with a silk ascot
tied neatly around his neck.
His teeth in, and his hair
combed, he was not only well
barbered, but had the air of a
gentleman. Greeting everyone he would disappear into
his make-up trailer and when
he emerged he had become
“Gabby” replete with costume, rumpled hair and no
teeth…”Hallo…Roy,” would
be his trademark greeting to
his old friend. What a wonderful career, spanning decades with movie and television credits, radio and television, he was one of the images
of my childhood that continue to bring a smile to my
face and instantly take me
back to the days in the neighborhood. He passed away in
1969 at the age of seventyfour and, like Andy Devine,
was lovingly eulogized by his
friends in Hollywood.
With my other great cowboy idol, Gene Autry, was his

tion he was a composer of
music of some note, but for
this kid he was the bumbling
sidekick to Gene, always
there to provide the laughter.
Let’s not forget that Smiley
was the stalwart train conductor, Charley Pratt, on the
hit sitcom, Petticoat Junction.
Other sidekicks included
Fuzzy Knight who began his
movie career with Mae West
in 1933 in the classic film, She
Done Him Wrong and was the
cowboy pal to Johnny Mack
Brown in the 1940s. For me,
and perhaps you, he is best
remembered as the second
banana in the 50s TV show,
Captain Gallant of the Foreign
Legion, and don’t forget
Cubby in that show. Then
you had the wonderful character actor, Leo Carrillo who
played Pancho in the unique
western TV show, The Cisco
Kid. It was the first television
western that featured Hispanic actors in the lead and
was an immediate success.
Last, but not least, you have
the fine actor Ken Curtis and
his character of Festus in the
long running television show,
Gunsmoke.
The litany of sidekicks are
numerous and unforgettable,
and quite frankly, enhanced
the show. It is rare that any
program, either on TV or in
the movies, has been successful without the characters that
have stood beside the star
and have offered their unique
brand of humor and comic
relief. So every time I tune
into a Turner Classic movie
and see one of my old friends,
especially my buddy, Gabby,
I can’t help quietly saying to
myself, “…boy…he’s a character.”
I think back on my rough
70
New Martinsville
and ready days as a kid riding
the plains of my backyard or
the canyons of the alleys that
dotted our neighborhood,
and I am amazed at my abilities of horsemanship and roping, not to mention my abilities with a six shooter. What
a time! No one got hurt, no
one got into trouble and no
one took the charades too seriously, it was just fun – good
clean fun. Today as I pass the
display case that holds my
old cap pistols and holsters, I
wonder if they would fit, and
if I would still have my fast
draw, but then I realize that
too much time has passed
and that my riding days are
behind me. So I tip my hat to
my old friends and just say,
“Happy Trails.”
Until the next time, remember, THERE’S GOLD IN
YOUR ATTIC, have fun and
happy hunting.

POLITICAL PARADE
by Michael J. McQuillen
Few would dispute the fact
that 2008 was a historic year
in the world of U.S. politics.
Many “firsts” in our political
structure were reached, cul-
nalia including the official
web-sites of the Obama campaign. A number of pop-culture artists lent their efforts to
the 2008 campaign and the
Attention Chicago area garage sale and flea market enthusiasts!!
This scarce Barack Obama for State Senate button recently sold at
auction for $3683!
minating in the Inauguration
of the first African-American
President of the United
States.
Collectors of political
memorabilia have seen an absolute explosion in not only
the amount, but the diversity
of political campaign collectibles as well. “Limited
Edition” was the key phrase
in dozens of different campaign prints and posters produced and sold by many vendors of campaign parapher-
end result was a series of attractive and colorful campaign posters that were intended more for the living
room than the polling place
when all was said and done.
EBay and other auction
web-sites are still filled with
various editions of these and
other posters from the campaign. A recent check of the
phrase “Obama Poster”
yielded 1579 results with
prices ranging from $3 to
nearly $3000 depending on
unsigned and more.
Buttons, the mainstay of
most political collectors, also
abounded throughout the
2008 campaign. Both the
McCain and Obama camps
put out their fair share of pinbacks, and once again current
prices are running the gamut
from cheap to expensive.
Items from the winner’s previous campaigns are in especially high demand, and a
rare Barack Obama for State
Senator button sold for an
eye- popping $3683 in a national mail order auction recently.
Thankfully for collectors,
the vast majority of McCain
and Obama buttons may still
be had for a few dollars for
common vendor examples up
to around $100 or less for
scarce one-day issues and artist produced pin-backs. All
in all, 2008 was a great year
for collectors of political
Americana and the hobby has
grown exponentially due to
campaign excitement.
On to the Mailbag…
Q: M.B. of St. Louis, MO emails: I saw your name in
AAJ. I have a neon orange
poster to Elect Nixon. It’s really funny, with all these
people such as Agnew and
Tricia holding signs saying
vote for my Daddy, etc. Any
idea what it’s worth? I’ve had
it framed and it’s certainly a
conversation piece but I am
curious.
A: Richard Nixon may not
have been as prolific as
Barack Obama when it comes
to campaign posters, but
there were hundreds of varieties produced between his
1960, 1968 and 1972 Presidential campaigns. Brightly colored and psychedelic designed posters abound and
this particular example sells
in the $25 - $30 range.

Smith for President Board of
Aldermen” – black and white
picture button of a young

A: This is a nice example to

Al Smith, the 1928 Democratic Presidential candidate
was not quite as successful at
the end of his campaign for
the White House. Pre-Presidential campaign items are
still very collectible, although
Smith comes in a distant second in this example. This pin
retails for around $200.
