Easel, canvases, light tracing box (Queensway Terrace North)
Expired
This is another collection of my surplus art-related things... 1) 2 canvasses, one unused 8"x10" with a screwed-on birch frame, and one 36"x12" that I started painting on, then completely lost interest in--which could be repainted white and reused for something new. 2) A home-made easel from many years ago, which I used to display larger paintings on (not being adjustable, it's not really suitable as a painting easel) but no longer need. 3) A misc. stack of heavy cardboards from pads of art papers, notebooks, and the like, which I used to like for quick studies in oils, experiments with painting, and so on (being absorbent, things dried quickly) and a few sheets of loose heavy paper I no longer plan to use. 4) An older Lightracer2 light tracing box, that again, I no longer plan to use. As the lit photo shows, it still works, though it usually takes 2-3 tries to get what I believe is a small fluorescent tube inside it to fire up (modern versions of this use LEDs, but this isn't a modern model). I'm hoping there'll still be lots of life in whatever lights it, as I never ended up using it much, and that someone else can make use of it. Switched off, it can be seen sitting under the easel. This is part of a group of items I'm posting MONDAY AFTERNOON (Sept 11, 2023). I won't be look to see who's interested until WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON (Sept 13, 2023). Then I'll do my usual: either decide who to offer to, or if there's a lot of interest on an item, I go to a names-in-a-hat exercise.

'G' stamps as craft supplies (Queensway Terrace North)
Expired
Years ago, I inherited these stamps from my mother...they're "G" stamps which back in the 1960s would have been issued to government offices for use on government mail ONLY. They were basically done away with by the 1970s, and all offices told to destroy them. What I was told about 2010 by an exasperated appraiser, was that all sorts of people ended up keeping them instead, with the idea that oh, someday they'd be valuable or collectible, but this has never turned out true. Be clear about it! These can't be used as stamps today, and in collectible terms they are VALUELESS. But: they're also striking, the effect of a mass of them is fun, and I've used them in the past (example) to cover decoupaged trinket boxes. Would anyone like them as a craft supply? This is one of two or three items I'm posting MONDAY AFTERNOON (Sept 11, 2023). I won't be look to see who's interested until WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON (Sept 13, 2023). Then I'll do my usual: either decide who to offer to, or if there's a lot of interest on an item, I go to a names-in-a-hat exercise.
