After I got done photographing the intercoms, I toured the rest of the warehouse and took a few pictures. This doesn't even scratch the surface. There's a lot of things in packed boxes and luggage, and this is only one warehouse, actually more of a large storage unit. The other one is a real warehouse, stuff to the rafters.
More pics.
It looks like that Addams family's attic.

Looks more like a store/antique mall than a warehouse. There was that large antique store in Burlington that I heard has closed down now? Bought a couple of phones there in the past.

Of the two warehouses, this one had much more stuff out in the open than the other one, although I was told that all those pieces of luggage have something in them. They aren't sure what, except for that one suitcase marked "furs". It was laying on the floor so I opened it. Filled with fur stoles.
I just noticed in the 4th picture in the second post, the gray timer on the shelf. I have one almost just like it, only not as nice looking. It was one of the few things that had a price tag on it, so some of this stuff was up for sale at one time. I only paid a few bucks for mine from Goodwill. You can't see it very well in my picture, but mine says "MFG. FOR GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. X-RAY DEPT.". I use it mostly for timing my laundry.
what's the story behind this place.. ??? wish i could go nose around for a few days :o is your laundry in training?..why do you time it ??? ;D

Story behind the place is it was David's (the older gentleman) family's estate from Pennsylvania. Why they moved it way out here, I don't know.
No, I'm not training my laundry, it's training me. ;) Since I use one of those apartment building coin-operated laundry rooms, the timer reminds me when the wash or dry cycles are done so I don't forget them. 25 minutes for a wash cycle, 1 hr for a dry cycle. It has a nice loud ring that always startles me.

Hokay..............................................
When the timer runs down, what do you do, change your underwear, or flip it inside-out? ;) Personally, I get 4 wears out of mine before washing, front-ways, then backwards, then I flip it inside-out, then wear it front and backwards! By the time it is ready to wash, they are antiques with Patina!
Preserve water! Its our most precious resource.
