DEWEY BURYEM & HOWE FUNERAL PALLOR & DELI. ONE STOP SHOPPING-While were planting Frankie, you can enjoy that tongue sandwich!! The Meat Wagon!!!!
Halloween is just around that dark corner and Fatty and the gang are looking for trouble! One used hearse, fondly referred to as, "The Meat Wagon," by the boys. The "wagon" measures in 14 1/2 inches in length and 7 3/4 inches in height, black with green interior. The front seat has seen better days, you'll note that all that's left is some ripped up upolstory. What do you expect from a hearse from the 30's!!
Since we are selling this rig we must disclose everything (almost) therefore .... Fats and Jimmy the "Mauler" were out joy riding one night and hit a lamp post. The left wheel is still a little wobbly and a piece of the right front bumper was shirred off. They did such a fine job jury rigging it that Mr. H. still doesn't have a clue. The sign on the back of the wagon is worn and old but still legible. Mr. H. is a great fan of advertising! He thought it was a brilliant idea to advertise the funeral home and his "baby," the Deli all in one place (he is somewhat of a tightwad). Also included in this auction: Fatty & Jimmy, they wouldn't dream of being seperated from their wheels. A black empty coffin, incase you need it for one of your "friends." A pitchfork and shovel, in case you need to "PLANT" something or someone. The official magazine/brochoure/menu from D,B & H Funeral Parlor & Deli. This old copy was found under the floorboard, man prices were alot better back then!! This gem states the company policy, famous slogans of the time and last but not least the Deli Menu!! WOW!!! "Have a heart" sub is to die for!! (r.r. queens, ny) (NOTE-Melancholia and her red velevet lined coffin are not included in this sale. She likes a good photo-op and wanted to be in a few of the pictures) [Sold: DATE HERE] |

BLACK CELEBRATION MIRROR. Mirror, Mirror, on the wall, who's the darkest of them all? D.O.A.? Our drear, DaRKlinG.. Ophelia.. ApAthY, she just can't seem to pull herself away from that mirror! Nothing in this world matters but for some strange reason she has become obsessed with her own reflection. So we hope you don't mind if she hangs around and stares whilst you PRIMP. The wood frame measures 9 1/4 x 11 1/4, mirror itself measures 4 3/4 x 6 1/2. It has lovingly been adorned with a few hauntingly beautiful dark touches that I have added here and there, including a hint of metallic silver. The dark Ophelia measures about 5 3/4 inches tall and her "bones" are formed of a plastic type material, with a nice touch of age added. Her long flowing hair is made of a coffee stained man made material. She is dressed in a beautifully dark tulle dress with a hint of velvet ribbon gathered about the ankles, a black widow spider completes the ensemble. 1 beautifully perserved dead (what else) rose and some lovely dried plant substance I gathered on one of my walks adorns the left corner of the mirror.

DEADTIME STORIES.
Ms. Dora May and her "evil" twin Ms. Libby...
The 38th in a series of OOAK un-"Natural" creations from the dArK cobwebbed filled hemisphere of my brain.
Everyone loves to settle down with a good book on a snowy day...right?
Well, this inseperable duo are no exceptions! Especially since they have so much free time on their hands, because, well isn't it obvious? They're dead!
Our dear twins, Dora May and Libby met their tragic end at an early age whilst permforming their act at the traveling carny (some of the towns folk didn't cotton to their type of "art,")(details are just to gruesome to go into at this time). The ladies now spend their time sitting in their old painted wooden rocker and reading their favorite book of dark little dead, I mean, bEdtimE storiEs (pay no mind to the bloody pages). The "antiqued" rocker measures, 6 inches x 3 1/2 inches in width. The girls measure about 5 3/4 inches tall and their "bones" are formed of a plastic type material, with a nice touch of age added. They are dressed in their cotton and lace dresses which have "aged" over time and Libby still has a flower in her hair that some nice gentleman friend gave her one night after a performance. On the back of the rocker you will find and old rusty bell attached by piece of raffia. They don't know about it, yet, as I added it so you would know when they are active, particularly in the middle of the night. [Sold: DATE HERE] |

FLOWER IN THE ATTIC.Master Rothchilds likes to collect pretty things..
our dearly departed Pandora...locked away & alone in the attic, the 41st in a series of OOAK un-"Natural" creations from the dArK cobwebbed filled hemisphere of my brain.
This creation consists of one "antiqued" wooden heart shaped wall adornment, measuring 6 1/2 x 6 inches . It's aged look was created with a bit of black & white acrylic paint. Adorning this shelf is the beautiful but forlorn, Pandora. She measures about 5 3/4 inches tall and her "bones" are formed of a plastic type material, with a nice touch of age added. She is dressed in her one and only vintage "aged" cotton dress and cheesecloth shawl. In her right hand she holds a book, aptly named, "Flowers in the Attic," which she has read so many times she could recite it page for page. After all what is there to do when you have been locked in one place for all these years!!
Also included is a key on a velvet rope. It is just out of her reach, believe me she has tried! She doesn't believe Mr. Rothchilds when he tells her it is the key to his heart. She believes it is the key to the attic door and her freedom! Maybe you can help her obtain that very wish!!

The 47th in a series of OOAK un-"Natural" creations from the dArK cobwebbed filled hemisphere of my brain.
On night's, not unlike tonight, when the moon's smile is full, a faint laugh can still be heard coming from the children's playroom, at the end of the hall, of the old Payne estate.

Hitchcock, the rocking horse originally hailed from the People's Republic of China but Epiphany found him broken by the wayside (here, somewhere, in the old USA (he measures- 11 x 8 1/2 inches). He was a sad pony as he had no reigns and somehow had lost his tail. She took him home and with a little help, he is, as you see him today.

MOURNINGSIDE CEMETERY GARDEN--SOLD--. after the clock strikes Midnight...Elizabeta Alexandra & her feathered fiend, Poe..
The 46th in a series of OOAK un-"Natural" creations from the dArK cobwebbed filled hemisphere of my brain.
On night's when the moon's smile is full, a faint laugh can still be heard coming from the garden of the Mourningside Cemetery. The old wooden swing still hangs from the oak tree overlooking the now, unkept garden. The new owners of the cemetery don't keep up the once lush area as they feel their clients don't really care about it, because, well, they're dead.
Back when old man Scrimm owned the cemetery, it's gardens were his pride and joy, besides his daughter Alex. Unfortunately at the age of 9, Alex's life was snuffed out by a mysterious fire in the mortuary and things were never the same. Later the same year Scrimm took his life and shortly thereafter the Mourningside Cemetery was bought by people who just cared about money. There were rumours that the fire was set on purpose and the intended victim was suppose to be be old man Scrimm, himself.
Up for auction is the old wooden swing, it measures 7 3/4 x 4 1/2 inches- 20 1/4 inches hanging length.
Adorning the left hand side of this piece is sweet little Alex, herself. She measures about 5 3/4 inches tall and her "bones" are formed of a plastic type material, with a nice touch of age added. She is dressed in her vintage "aged" dress and cheesecloth jumper. She also wears a silver heart & star necklace her father had given her when she was 5 years old. (Ignore that skull sitting on the swing next to her, umm, it's not real). On the other side of the swing sits her fiend, Poe, who carries a faded rose from the garden. Not shown in the photo's but behind them on the swing are a few black flowers and another purple/silver faded rose. Completing this swing is s tag with the name of the cemetery garden, embellished with a black ribbon. Last, but not least is another black ribbon on the top of the swing and a piece of red raffia which holds a rusty bell and a skull bell. They're there just in case Alex's spirit stops by your abode....... you'll know when she is lurking about the premises.
