Latest Excavations |
| |
The
Architecturologists
go to sea! The
Staten Island Ferry
- Walter Keane
The
architecturologists
retrieved many
architectural finds
from their recent
excavations on the
sea. They have
recently salvaged
The Staten Island
Ferry, Walter Keane,
and came to shore
with various
nautical treasures.
This Ferry was
converted into a
floating prison
years ago and was
used to house
inmates. It was
docked in the east
river and served as
a temporary holding
cell for suspects
awaiting trial. We
have anchors,
chains, bells,
weights, furniture,
equipment and more!
Below are just a few
of the treasures now
being offered to you
by Olde Good Things.

Olde Good Things has
developed a
wonderful reputation
in the salvage
business. As a
result, we have many
new and exciting
excavations on the
horizon. Read all

upcoming newsletters

What’s Happening at Olde Good
Things |
| |
Since we told you in our last
newsletter, we officially made
our mark in Los Angeles, where
we acquired a 12,000 sq ft
retail location right in
downtown LA, two blocks from the
LA Mart and the Staples
Center... We're getting it ready
for our Grand Opening
announcement in January 2005!
WEST COAST CUSTOMERS can now
receive all our terrific olde
good things delivered to your
doorstep. Find out about our
containers leaving on a monthly
basis from our National
Warehouse in Scranton to our new
downtown LA location.
We're starting our new year with
a bang. We will be at the LA
Mart this month on the West
Coast and on the East at
"Antiques at the Pier" presented
by Stella Promotions - so take a
look at our show schedule and
see if we'll be in your area for
you to come see all our great
finds!
We're getting known as the
leading architectural salvage
company in the United States -
many facilities managers and
building owners have been
calling us to sell us salvage
rights to their buildings prior
to interior or complete
demolition of properties. We
offer competitive prices for
salvage rights as well as have a
fully insured, experienced staff
who safely and carefully remove
architectural elements. |

Tip of the Month:
Custom Made Furniture - Boat
Chain |
| |
Don't be afraid of buying these
custom made iron creations.
These pieces are unique and one
of a kind. You don't have to
worry about the Jones' copying
them. There are many different
things you could make using the
old boat chains. At our National
Warehouse in Scranton, PA we
have an onsite welder that will
customize a unique and original
table made to your
specifications. Choose from one
of the styles below, or use your
imagination and create an
original piece of furniture with
originality and history. If you
are interested in speaking with
our staff about creating a
custom table, please call us at
1-888-233-9678. |

Testimonials |

California Customer, J. H.,
first began his shopping
experience with Olde Good Things
at our Scranton Warehouse
location. He purchased an iron
arbor, terra cotta and stained
glass and had all these items
shipped via our monthly
container to our LA location.
After visting our new California
store, he now frequents our S.
Grand Avenue location and has
purchased a variety of iron -
gates, fencing and the like. He
just loves to use the original
items in his home decor. One of
our regular customers loves Olde
Good Things so much they are
planning to make a showplace
deep in the heart of TEXAS. Stay
tuned for details. We do sell a
lot to other dealers down south
who also use our items to make
lights, bed posts and many other
unique items for resell. Thanks
to all our repeat dealer
customers we've become more and
more known for our many
architectural treasures.
