There. I'm getting off my soapbox. Said my piece, and as I mentioned before, it really doesn't matter...I just had to get it off my chest! (Can you tell I've been surfing Craig's list and ebay?) Thanks! ;) :lol:
I'm with you. We learned in Antique class that if it's not 100 years old, then... And in England if it is not 300 years old then no antique. I guess people think if it's over 50 then it is old. Yipes... if that were true, I'm really over the hill. LOL
