"Cabaret" by Bud Grossman Philadelphia, Pa. 1955 Sold in 2014

We really loved this painting. It just screamed out mid-century "Mad Men" cocktail and conversation time. Well exhibited and a prize winner. We agree.

Vintage drinking glasses and barware.

If you are into retro and vintage you know that cool old decorative glasses are extremely popular. They are also getting expensive. A complete set, of a rare pattern of Georges Briard designed glasses can bring $500 or more. Remember, like everything, condition is absolutely critical. No cracks, chips, fading or scuffs from a dishwasher allowed. Value goes down fast if not in mint condition.

We got this neat set of 8 in yesterday. They are milk glass with a colorful star pattern and atomic-age starburst. They are in their nifty brass wire caddy too. Lisa said she has never seen any like this before. They are available here .
