And maybe a few more selections as I pull them off the shelves. It will be an “old-school” sale… first come, first served. I’ll post all of the photos & information at 6:00pm cst only on my Facebook page. And then the first person to add a Comment to each photo that says “MINE” will get the piece! Easy-peezy… fingers crossed… full details tomorrow at 6:00pm!
