Timeless Treasures in Savoy IL

I decided to start a new blog that I can post anything to.  My other blog is mostly film photography.  I might even occasionally give some opinions about issues of the day in this place.  Still to start off I have some views of a fairly new shop, Timeless Treasures in Savoy IL. From the outside the place doesn't look like it could have much, however there is more space inside than I would have thought.  When I visited it was a clean, well-organized shop with pretty good variety.

I imagine that these jugs and crocks were like the tuperware of its day.  I remember my father using a crock to make sauerkraut and beet wine.

I am just guessing that this stove burned coal. Although some people still used coal furnaces when I was a kid I don't remember anyone cooking with anything other than a gas or electric stove.

Most shops have some space for Christmas all year round.  Timeless Treasures had a good assortment of vintage Christmas stuff when I was there.

Fans like this were still pretty common 40 years ago. A good strong fan like this was quite a relief back before air conditioning became common.

There aren't many things that can make me feel more like an old-timer than seeing phones like these being sold in an antique shop. Such phones are still an image that will pop into my mind when I think of a telephone.  Of course to most young people today they probably look like a crank phone looks to someone of my vintage.
