Sharp and clean: smallish mission oak bookcase, with three original oak shelves. 30” wide, 13” deep, 53” high. $325.00.

We are ready to roll tomorrow, Saturday May 4th, for our Open House at 416 Midgard Rd, 12-5pm. Parking permitted on south side of street only. Please message me 614 578 1539 if anyone needs parking in rear to avoid the first set of steps. So looking forward to seeing familiar faces!

This solid oak bar/cabinet was made in Belgium. Probably early 20th century. The carvings and detailed panels are unmatched into today’s furniture world.
A reminder for this Saturday’s open house from noon-5pm, regarding access to our new digs at 416 Midgard Rd., Clintonville. There are many steps in the front of the house, which is on a hill. The new space is above our garage and an additional steep 15 steps. There are two parking spaces reserved in the rear for those who need it. Just message me to reserve a spot or for any other questions: 614 578 1539.

One of the finest and most unusual form early 19th century cherry with burled decoration stands we’ve had the pleasure of offering-the two over one drawer is a rare design indeed.

Historic Granville Ohio High School Class 1905 Memorabilia Avery Family | eBay Included in this collection: the 1905 “GHS ‘05” inscribed Granville High School class pin belonging to Alice Avery (1887-1962). It is marked “gold” on the back, but I do not know if it is 10k etc or not gold at all.

Mary Catherine’s Antiques is offering a rare 1836 Granville Ohio child’s needlework sampler on eBay this week! Check it out, as well as six other listings with early 20th century real photo postcards and other memorabilia from Granville Ohio and Denison University. See eBay seller marycatherinesantiques.

1836 Granville Ohio Needlework Sampler Related To Theophilus Rees Welch Hills | eBay The 6 1/4” high by 5 1/4” wide dated 1836 needlework was stitched by 11 year old Jerusha Thomas (1826-1892.). Jerusha’s great grandfather was Theophilus Rees, founder and patriarch of the Welsh community in Granville in the early 1800s, and part of the pioneer group known for the Welsh Hills.

Many of you might remember the Columbus photographer James Valentine estate Mary Catherine’s purchased 7 or 8 years ago. So many fabulous paintings, photos, books, unusual artifacts. I saved many of Valentine’s photos-some were his work, but he also collected-and am now beginning to sort them. Posting some of my favorite of the children’s photos. Hope to offer Valentine’s work during our Open House Dec. 9,10. Full details tomorrow night!

Greetings! Mary Catherine’s new space remains a work in progress, but we are ready for a holiday visit! We will have an open house Saturday and Sunday December 9th and 10th., 1-5pm, so please stop by if you are in the Clintonville area! More details next week! As a reminder, this is not an open shop, but by appointment and special events.
Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Greetings! As promised, photos of our new digs, as we transition from 44 years of shop keeping in the Short North to a second floor by appointment only space in Clintonville. Hope to be on-line with a new website and fresh merchandise by the holidays. We are also selling rare smalls on eBay, starting this week with a 1962 comic book: Journey Into Mystery #85, first appearance of the villain Loki! Follow seller Marycatherinesantiques on eBay!

The shop has been closed permanently for a week now, but Ross from the 1126 Restaurant caught me on a final window wash and snagged the aloe plant in an art glass vase that was sitting in the window! Literally the only thing left in the store! We were both tickled, as he claimed absolute last sale. Thank you, Ross!

So fitting! First and last visitors! My friend Jeff and I started in the antique business together in the late 1970s ( we both lament:”we’re the old timers now!”😂)and these two lovely young ladies were our final customers before locking the door forever this evening. What a fun filled but poignant month. So many of you took time out of your busy days to visit and purchase and reminisce about the old days. Truly remarkable, memorable, and forever appreciative of it all.

Well, going out in style our 2nd to last day of open shop: the Navarro boys descended on the shop for a large portion of the afternoon (well behaved, precocious-❤️) and Logan Meyer’s kids behind the wheel of our loaned out van! 😂😉 Pretty fun stuff.
