I want to collect them for my laundry room but none yet.

And now here's the other end of the extreme. So tickled for you to get such a good buy on a 'desire of the heart'.<br /><br />I, too, want to know what vbg stands for.....did you mean 'vgb' and maybe it means 'very good buy'?Dollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01538342558750190865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5292552408925652547.post-22677127854450088452011-02-22T14:50:41.868-08:002011-02-22T14:50:41.868-08:00*vbg* . . . very big . . .?*vbg* . . . very big . . .?Normahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15409311560703434958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5292552408925652547.post-88716523804334036452011-02-22T13:43:30.736-08:002011-02-22T13:43:30.736-08:00You got a real deal.

However, *all* of ours had either a detachable wood and metal handle or a metal handle with the part the hand holds that was "wrapped" in wood. When ours were being used, they were heated by setting them on top of the wood/coal cooking stove.<br />Glad you had fun on your holiday.Dora, the Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16043451474748191494noreply@blogger.com
