Collectors Fair Pictures

Pictures from the Collectors Fair, February 21st, 2010.




A fine collection of antique toasters.




Howard and Brad Barrup at their display. The Barrups always give away soap which they make with glycerin, a bi-product of their biodiesel operation. They produce enough biodiesel at their fix-it shop in Newport to heat the shop and power a Volkswagen.

of toy soldiers, stamps and coins



An
electric train set ran around the track
