OLD GLORY ANTIQUES FAIR

Last weekend we were off to attend the Old Glory Antiques Fair in Littleton, Colorado to observe the current trends.  
We saw lots of 'fresh from the farm' stuff.
 A good amount of industrial or is this from the farm?  Does anyone know what this apparatus is?
 Lots of crust and rust!
 Industrial carts repurposed into furniture.
 With a little cowboy and chippy paint thrown in!
 Patriotic items.
 And one of the biggest draws -- Ki Nassauer of Flea Market Style graciously signing magazines.
Did I buy anything?  Not at the Antiques Fair; as I had decided to 'shoot my wad' on something I have had my eye on for over a year at one of the Denver antique malls.  I've walked away at least three times without buying it; and decided that if it was still there, today would be the day.
It was there, so this tin picnic basket came home with me.  Since it hadn't sold, that probably means it was over-priced; but I couldn't resist it any longer.  I search for bargains constantly, so I can splurge once in awhile!
