Post by: maugie on August 07, 2012, 06:51:55 AM

  ??? I have a Ferguson Bar Cart made of Solid Mahogany w/ all original glassware and utensils.  I would like to find the era it was made in and other info. on it because I am looking to sell it. Have no clue as to it's worth or what to ask for it. Can anyone help me with this.  The condition is like new.

Wow! That is a beautiful piece! I am trying to educate myself on vintage bar wear right now, and judging just by the top of the shaker and the fact that you said that all of the accessories are original I would date it to the late 20s, early 30s. Some shakers alone can fetch $1000s, while most will fetch $100-600 that are from this era.

Thank you for sharing!

I would guess that it is more likely from the 1940s or 50s, the era of martinis and knotty pine rec rooms.

I would check for makers marks on the contents of the bar, could you send photos of the shaker, tongs, ice bucket ect?

Very nice !!  There is one on ebay not nearly as nice as yours and much later date with no accessories with a BIN of $350.
I would date yours late 20`s or 30`s and like ACStanley said, the contents can be valuable in their own right !!  I would like to see the metal accs. and one of the glasses if possible !! Do look closely for makers mark on the metal parts !! Unless aluminum or tin,, they should have something !!

Didn't see that third photo the first time. 20s or 30s is probably right.
