Description & Details

This Estate sale consists of a front house and a back house as well as a large garage! It’s a 1970s time capsule. The houses have sold. We are in the process of setting up while the family is still making decisions. The house is not organized yet. I wanted to at least get some photos up to show you a little of what is there.

This family loved to store things in tin cans and handmade wooden crates. We are unpacking all of it and we will be working up to the last minute. So I’m not sure what all we may pull out. Come enjoy a different Era!
