Once again to the antique store
« on: May 16, 2025, 06:52:30 PM »
On my way back to New York my wife and I stopped just across the Missouri river in the town of chamberlin (sp?)
 Picked up a few books for my library and I picked up these strands of original trade beads.
 Not to up on beads but they look original so I have some research to do.

Kevin, it sounds like there is to be some pictures of your beads. I know I'm 99.9% computer illiterate, but  I'm not seeing any pictures. What am I doing wrong?

Now that's what I'm talking about. Let us know what your research turns up.

The real question now becomes, now you got 'em, whatcha gonna do with them?
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest Up to God.

Let me get back from my trip and I'll let ya know what happens with them.
  We are probably taking I-90 all the way back and if that happens we may stop into that store again.
 He has a few stands of the light blue , I forget the real name for them  but I should would like a set of those.  only problem, they are twice what I paid for each of these.
