I stopped at the North Myrtle Beach Flea Market this morning: Located 100 Highway 17 North, (Between North Myrtle Beach & Little River), North Myrtle Beach, SC 29582, if you are ever at the beach and want to check it out.
Here's my "Great Find"; A Vintage Redmon Woven Wood and Metal Picnic Basket with Trays, Cups and Silverware
This vintage Redmon picnic basket is a real treasure. Made in Peru, Indiana in the 1950s, this basket contains most of the original pieces.
The basket is in excellent vintage condition. The plastic cups are in excellent condition. The plastic trays / divided plates are also in very good condition. The metal handles fold down and out of the way when accessing the inside of the basket. The basket has two opening lids on hinges.
This basket is very well made and will last for many years - and for many more picnics!
Contains:
- 1 Wood and Metal Woven Picnic Basket
- 1 small Table Insert
- 6 Plastic Trays / Divided Plates
- 6 Plastic Cups
- 9 pieces of Silverware (I can't be sure these are original)
Product Details:
- Product Material: Wood, Metal
- Product Dimensions: 22" long x 14" wide x 12" tall; pie shelf/table is 3" tall
Other then 2 loose staples (which are still attached) at the bottom, and the table insert is a little warped, but feel I can bring it back, it's in EXCELLENT condition. I paid $8.00.
I'm so excited to go picnicking....
