Here are some items we have for sale inside Prairie Chic, for your shopping needs:
Here is a letter written on May 3, 1912 after the Titanic sunk, which talks about the Titanic, how Britains couldn't build good ships like Americans can and how the Titanic sank. The picture is signed by by Millvina Dean, the last known survivor of the Titanic. There is also an original newspaper advertisement for the Mauretania and the Lusitania, mentioned in the letter. The Lusitania is noted as a strong ship, which was sunk to start the U.S. involvement in World War I. The price on this item  is $2,150. 
Are you needing a side table for your home? We have many available, including these small ones with a flat back perfect to be placed up against a wall. The larger one with the coal bucket is $70, the rectangle one with the platter on it is $20, the two on the right side are $15 each and the one with two shelves underneath is $8.

We are Prairie Chic Handcrafts and Antiques at 9 S. Broadway Herington, Kan. Feel free to inquire about something you are seeking but that you do not see pictured. We are happy to try to help you find it!! We also take larger vintage, antique or quality used items to sell on commission, including furniture, musical instruments, household items and art pieces if you are looking to sell yours!
