November December Issue Arrives in Two Weeks

The latest issue of Architectural Salvage News -- the November/December issue -- is in production and should be hitting the streets, mailboxes and salvage stores in about two and a half weeks.

As for some of the latest industry happenings, word on the street is that Tony's Architectural Salvage in Orange, Calif., is planning a massive, two-day auction in January to clear out all their inventory in preparation for Tony's retirement. I haven't been to Tony's yet, and I haven't met him in person, but I have talked with him at length on several occasions. Tony's passionate about salvage, has incredible contacts and is a character whom I really enjoy talking with. http://www.tonysarchitecturalsalvage.com/

I was sorry to see that the former partners of Ty and Eric's Architectural Salvage have gone their seperate ways after just a short time in business. No word on what happened, but Eric is still operating the business at the same location in Indianapolis. He'll have a new website soon but for now it's: http://www.tyanderics.com

Rumor and speculation has it that Olde Good Things might be getting ready to expand again, this time to Miami. I don't know of anything official, but I'll check with General Manager Kevin Browne and let you know. They just salvaged a 1940's resort in Miami. http://www.oldegoodthings.com/newsletter17.htm
