Title: Ringers
Post by: greenacres on June 05, 2012, 08:28:30 PM: My husband brought these home today, even though I asked him for the chairs and one of the mirrors. These aren't bad either. They were half burried in a dirt basement floor. I'll get better pictures tomorrow. I love that all the information is put across the ringer where today everything is on a sticker. These are 3 ringers. They need some work, more cleaning.

Post by: greenacres on June 10, 2012, 02:54:40 PM: i've been cleaning the wringers. One I fine is the best. I can't get a true value because they are all over the place on ebay. There's one I think he doesn't plan on selling because he wants $499.99.

One is April 10 and the first was June 2 1888 or it might be a 9 I've seen the Horseshoe brand before. One has a back issue.
