For Sale

336. Trash or Treasure?

336. Trash or Treasure?

I was going to title this post “Bubbler for Sale” but unless you have Milwaukee, Wisconsin ties, you probably don’t know what a bubbler is. For those of you in the dark, a bubbler is a drinking fountain. Makes sense in a way. The water bubbles from the spout and you take a drink from the bubbling water.

I don’t think there are too many antique bubblers on the market. But there’s one available at this little antique shop on Willy Street. You can find lots of fun things when you walk Willy Street.

    Fun shot, and I for one have never heard of a bubbler. Looks like it has seen better days! 🙂

    Nice shot – I like the colors and composition. And I have heard of a bubbler! Must be because I’m from neighboring Michigan originally.

    I love the colors, looks like a substantial bubbler. I’ve heard the term in Chicago.

    You are spot on for the photo’s theme. Very nice. I heard the term from the penguins (nuns) when i was in grade school.

    I’d like to take a browse in that shop. Not sure I’d take the bubbler home, though!
