If you want to renovate any old Queenslander this is the place to go. You name it - he will find it amongst his extensive "collection" But he might decide to not sell it to you!!
There is a show here called "American Pickers". It features a couple of men who go around to places like this and acquire old stuff to sell in their antique shop. I've only seen bits and pieces of it because I don't like the way the "cheat" folks out of valuable things when they don't realize what they have. They'd probably have a field day here- but it sounds like this fellow would have their number right from the start! Interesting effect from the IR.
@tinley23 Hi Lesley - thanks for your nice comment. This was taken with an IR camera - that's what has given it that different set of tones. And - you are so right - this is a great place to rummage!! :)
@olivetreeann LOL Ann - you are so right - nobody could cheat this fellow - he knows all his stuff and how much it's worth. He's been collecting for years and people know to go to him for particular renovation requirements. I think I may have seen the show you referred to - and another interesting one where they bought whole containers of stuff - sight unseen!! :)
