We spotted this chair quite a while back at a local consignment / resale shop in St. Chuck. I inquired about the price since it didn't have a tag at the time. They told me it was available on eBay at the time. I checked eBay and did indeed find it, but not at a price I was going to be interested in paying!

So No, It's Not A Milo Baughman Chair As Thought Perhaps It Might Be By The Previous Owner. And It's Not A Mies Van Der Rohe Brno Chair Either. It's Kind Of A Mash Up! Status: Available.

I SO Wish The Upholstery Was In Better Condition! I Picked Up This Chrome Frame Baughman-esque Scoop Lounge Chair Today Via Criagslist And Should Have It Displayed Soon At The Shag. Status: Available.
I so wish I had the wear-with-all to pull this apart and re-upholster this beauty myself...but I know my limitations. Not that I think it'd be all that hard, it's just the time that it'd take to...well let's face it, let it sit in the garage half done.

Wow! What A Beautiful Saturday Afternoon! We Made A Little Trip Back North To Springfield Illinois Today To Pick Up A Table Via Craigslist But Went Ahead And Explored A Couple Of New Antique Malls In The Area. Status: Discovered.
The Barrel Antique Mall? Don't let that rustic down home name fool you. I found a set of Four Thayer Coggin / Milo Baughman Orange and Chrome armchairs here...along with booth after booth filled...neah, STUFFED with Vintage Modern goodness.

I Realize This Recliner Looks Black...But Alas It Is Not. Dark Blue. I Also Realize It Bears A Striking Resemblance To Many Of The Milo Baughman Designs...But I'm Not Sure It's A Valid Attribution. But You Never Know. New Attributions Come To Light All The Time. Status: Recent Acquisition.
Another roadtrip to Columbia Mo. today yielded some tasty goodies. Featured this time is a luxurious leather and chrome steel recliner, or as I like to call it...nap chair. This was listed on craigslist but not in the usual Furniture section. I found it on the Household list and while I usually discount anything like this that is listed as being leather...the seller was spot on.

Looking For Some Stylish Bargains In The Baltimore MD Region? Caryn R. Certainly Is! She Asked If I Could Take A Moment To Scrounge Through Her Neck Of The Woods To See If There Were Any Diamonds In The Rough. Let's Check Out What I Found, Shall We? Status: Not My Turf!
We're back up in the North East this time. It took me a couple hours to put this all together and some of the ads might be a little bit older, but there is definitely some good and undervalued stuff up here in Baltimore. Let me know in the comments if you happen to snag any of these treasures!

Hot Or Not? This Is The Lamp I Picked Up At The Thrift Store Saturday. I Was Hoping To Find Out It Was A Milo Baughman Design Or Something, But Came Up Empty Handed. Status: Whatcha Think?
I dig it. I won't buy anything I don't. That said, I was hoping that I'd find out it's some pricey designer lamp...but I can't even find another like it on the web at all! Now I'm just kinda wondering what you think about it.

Ugh...Just Got Home From Work. Graveyard Shift. TGIF. Let's Check Out Some Of The Amazing Seating Available At BAM In Chicago. Status: Two Floors Of Goodness.
It's got to cost these vendors a small fortune to keep such an uncluttered vignette such as this every month. I guess the turnover must be real good or maybe it's just a hobby but I only see 10 items for sale in this space (which is only half what the vender is selling out of, but it's pretty much the same story in the other half!). At least it looks REALLY Good! I love steel frame furniture like this but it often looks a little kitschy or retro. This set looks...well, expensive and well appointed!

Stop Drop And Roll. That's What The Last 45 Minutes Of Freedom Before Work Consists Of When I Have To Make A Stop At The Green Shag Market. Status: Resupplied.
I try real hard to get up early enough to have plenty of time for messing with my Booth Space (44) before going on into work during the week, but it never works out so. I'm always just finishing up, jumping into Frank and making a mad dash down the highway just in time to get to work five minutes late.

For The Last Three Weekends We've Been Trying To Get An Opportunity To Sift Through The Wentzville Flea. Status: Finally!
Two weeks ago it looked like it would be a perfect weekend to hit the Wentzville Flea Market. I awoke to my alarm and a thunder shower pummeling the flea market. Denied. Last weekend, illness. Denied. This weekend - we finally made it! And found almost nothing, just a few smalls for the Booth Space (44 @ The Green Shag Market). ::Sigh::

Happy Independance Day! Mr. Modtomic Is Ready To blast Off In This Rocket's Red Glare! This Vintage Coin Op / Photo Op Is At Rocket Century. Status: Rocket Century Gots The Goods.
While at Rocket Century's "Swank-A-Rama" parking lot sale Mr. Modtomic took a little stroll through host's indoor sales area. You might remember seeing a few photos of this from their earlier sale here. This time Rocket Century had a little more time to properly stage their selling area and it looked great. They have some really nice stuff available!

Aaaaand Here It Is! Yup, It Was The Green Milo Baughman Recliner. Status: One In - One Out.
Even as found, this was the major score from the Gypsy Caravan. I'd have to say this might have been the best deal at the entire flea market that day! As you can see in the pictures from the sale that day, it was stuck in the middle of somewhat incongruous offerings...and perhaps - lucky for me - well hidden by them!
