Found a great new store for antiques & collectibles

Every now and then you come across a local store online that has some amazing items.  Myself antiques have always been an interest, I enjoy researching the history behind the items and how they were used.  So that being said I came across Samantha's Lake Country Collectibles on ETSY and what I found was a unique little online store with a real collection of different items from vintage china and pottery to militaria (my personal collection bug here).  Just a few of the items I found that were truly unique and I have never seen before was a WW1 trench art from the battle of Verdun (check out the picture of this amazing piece of history)

Another of the items I also found that was rather amazing was the collection of original new in the box vintage models; I spotted an F9F Panther jet kit and this little gem a metal Model A Hubley kit complete and still in the factory bags.

And if you collect China, Samantha's Lake Country Collectibles  has a large assortment of some really nice items from vintage tea cups to antique plates and vases.  You really must check out this store on ETSY.
