Antique Wicker Baby Carriage/Buggy-The National Co. - $150 - (Iron River, MI)
Up for your consideration is our family's Antique Wicker Baby Carriage/Buggy from The National company in Perrysburg, Ohio. This is over 100 years old and was purchased for my Grandfather, an only child and then 20 years later used for his daughters, then my mother used it for me. I had no space to have it when I had children, and they haven't wanted it as neither of them is into antiques at all. It has been stored indoors it's entire life. I have used it as a beautiful decoration with artificial flowers during the year and filled with fake wrapped presents at Christmas time. I remember my mother giving a baby shower for a friend and having me push the buggy in filled with wrapped presents. All the parts work on this buggy, and there is a little hidden compartment in the bottom that is covered with a fold back cloth top for keeping valuables, diapers, etc. The wooden wheels are beautiful. This is in its original condition. It measures approximately : 45-1/2 in. high with the bonnet in an upright position, the entire length is approximately 47-1/2 in. long with the bonnet down, and 46 in. with the bonnet up. The wicker body only with the bonnet down is approximately 33-1/2 in. long. The Bonnet is 21-1/2 in wide. The wood wheels are 14-1/4 in. across. This is pick up only, though I do travel a little so possibly an arrangement can be made for delivery or to meet part way. I am selling this only because I have downsized. This would look so gorgeous on a large porch with flowers in it, or as it was meant to be used for a baby. Please be aware that I do not accept returns. There is no reserve price on this. It is located in downtown Iron River, Michigan 49935 in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. This is about: 5 hours Northeast of Milwaukee, Wisconsin; 3 hours Northeast of Green Bay, Wisconsin; 5 hours east of Minneapolis/St. Paul , Minnesota; and 5 hours West of the Mackinac Bridge. Thank you for looking.
