Cheeky Actress Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Looking about the other day and came across this web site. Great Historical finds and arms. There are a few items that date to mid-to-late 17th Century! Wish I had the $$$! Antique Associates - at West Townsend, Inc.

Cheeky Actress Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 This site is a treasure trove of historical finds. The Antique Associates are located in New England (MA), and looking through their historical finds (especially documents from the Mass Bay Coloney settlement) I've found legal papers, bills of trade, a letter of marque from the late 1790s for a Privateer, and finally a contract for an indentured servant dating back to the 1690s. Lovely stuff! I am looking at that lovely chair/table unit. I just wished that it could have been made so it would have broken down a bit better to carry off to events with. And the samplers even show a lovely item of King Charles II and his wife. Member of "The Forsaken" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Sterling Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 And the samplers even show a lovely item of King Charles II and his wife. When you have the time, I have directions for that type of stump work plus other examples from the time frame... "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell... I was forced to write what I would say to prevent the loss of blood, and because of the pain I suffered by speaking."~ Woodes Rogers Crewe of the Archangel http://jcsterlingcptarchang.wix.com/creweofthearchangel# http://creweofthearchangel.wordpress.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheeky Actress Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 When I have 'what'? Yes, my character (Mistress) would know the art of needle work, but gosh...I'm still trying to finish a few other projects right now. I'll let you know.
