Fobbing for Treasures

05/12/09

Like bobbing for apples, only done with antiques.

Every sharp-dressed man use to carry a pocket watch.

And every pocket watch had a goldfilled or silver fob and swivel from which it hung.

Here is a collection of such pieces of watch history and a vintage ladies watch serving to complete the lavalier style design.

I'll take fobbing for treasures over bobbing for apples anyday.
