I May Be Getting Desperate

I may be getting desperate. The auctions have been few and far between and each is stuffed with other dealers and auctionholics in need of inventory. The pickin's have been pretty slim and most of the "good" stuff has been selling for prices that are higher than my retail sales point.

Last night I may have purchased clear evidence of my desperation. I bought this umbrella stand. I think that it is Weller pottery. but I haven't done any research on that yet. As you can see, it has a few minor chips.

The whole damn thing is poorly glued together. Oh my! As I said, I may be getting desperate.
