1) Up Six: Funky, mod-60s pieces in a mid-century mix. One find: a three-piece Paul McCobb planner group set.
3) Succotash: Focused on the 50s to the 70s with an array of Scandinavian modern glassware, enamelware and pottery. Lighting, kitsch furniture.
5) Classic Retro @ Pete’s: Mostly mid-century modern furniture, accessories and lighting, but other periods, too – Art Deco to Arts and Crafts.
6) Swank: Couches, chairs, lighting and kitchen items from the 50s, 60s and 70s. One find: a set of combo drink coaster / ashtrays. The footstool is inscribed underneath with one family’s anniversary “journal.”
