Title: Ancient Artifact found in bric a brac
Post by: tinkerman on October 22, 2011, 19:14:11 PM
This ancient vase was found amongst some bric a brac today at the Table Top sale, it must be worth thousands!
But as we are a charity and the vase was a donation we are happy to auction it off exclusivley to CBF members, it was authenticated by Supercabby Mark and Baz.

It is definitely from 1500 b.c. as the Duck-billed whale died out then. 1 kurus from me to kick things off.

Gordon is not allowed to wash up by hand anymore, that is why he asked if it was dishwasher safe: :) ;)[:o)]
