Awesome Copper/Brass Deep Sea Diving Helmet Artwork!

"Holy Mike Nelson, Batman!"

For those of you of a certain age, you'll know the above-reference is about the Lloyd Bridges character in the television program 'Seahunt', which ran from 1958 to 1961.

And, no doubt, he'd be drooling over our lastest acquisition;

Copper/Brass Deep Sea Diving Helmet Artwork!

It's not (that we know of) an Antique, but it is rather incredible, large, with a bit of weight to it (likely around 40-50lbs.).

And, there is a element of Steam Punk to it, as whoever put it together (or cleaned it up), added a spigot to one of its' protusions, as well as a few extra brass couplings

The view portals do not open.

What can this be used for? ...

Let us count the ways ...

For someone strong enough, they can wear it to next years' Steam Punk Festival, or, repurpose it into a large lamp ... A seafood restaurant can have it as a mighty impressive prop to great their diners, or, if you have a salt water fish tank large enough, you can give your pet fish a nice playground ...

However you choose to use it, you first need to swim your way up to 13909 Antiques to grab this before someone else.

Bonus points to whoever comes for it in scuba gear!

Antique Brass Windle & Blyth Postal Scale

We got another real beauty into 13909 Antiques this week;

Antique Brass Windle & Blyth Postal Scale

It's mounted on an oak base, has three brass weights ( half-ounce, 1-ounce, and 4-ounces) and there is a small, what looks to be on Mother-of-Pearl, engraving about additional weight over 12-ounces and Book Post (there is wear and it is hard to make out)

A nice collectible for anyone into Postal Memorabilia, and, this is a functional item, so, if you want a scale to mail your letters with, be it from home, or to give your office a Retro-look, you'll need to get up here to 13909 Antiques and grab this baby

We even have a couple of Vintage 1-Cent Stamps available!
