As a hobby, I have collected antiques for the past 40 years while travelling through the roads of the province of Quebec as a commercial traveller. Rare were the occasions where I did not come home with a new antique item.

I retired in 97 and even though I'm not travelling through the country anymore, I managed to acquire some interesting pieces at flea markets in the Quebec city surroundings.

For the past two years, I have concentrated my efforts towards 3 collections: antique pressing irons and trivets, antique toy sewing machines, and antique padlocks and keys.

I've included several photos in the next pages. I'm also working on a new web page where I will include a description of all items. In the meantime, if you want some information about a particular item, send me a note.

I continue to collect antiques whenever I come across an interesting item especially if it would complete one of my collection, but I'm not getting any younger and it may be time for me to let them go. If you are interested in one of my collections or just one piece, let me know.
