Ah, theres the browse button. Anyway, here is a picture that I like and wanted to share and thought maybe it might be a candidate for the eye candy section.

Nice picture Perry.  Was this an auction picture or a picture of SOME of your winning bids that you took after hauling it all home???  I think it would look great in the eye candy.

Scott, its a picture that I took after I got back from the auction. If you notice, that background is the finest cardboard money can buy.

Well I'd say if you are the PROUD owner of those fine pieces of iron, then they should definately go in the eye candy!!!!

The five best waffle irons in one place that I've ever seen! And three heights on the square bases! Something these eyes haven't seen before and they have looked at a LOT of iron. :D Send me the three square ones and I'll see if I can't get the NC law to look the other way when you pass thru.  ;D ;D

Perry, now you've done it, you've gone and made me covet.  I couldn't help it.  I've never even seen one of the blue enamel base waffle irons in person let alone a whole flock of them.  Those are just beautiful.  I hate you :P

Thanks for the compliments Roger. I do have to say they sure are easy on the eyes.

They are gorgeous for sure.  As many times as I looked at them, I didn't realize the square bases were three different heights until it was pointed out here. :-[  Perry, I wish you'd post pictures of your roaster sets.  They're beautiful, too.

Sandy, I will take pictures of them and post them too. And to be sure, peoples bin sayin the three square waffle irons are different heights, and they might be, and they look it, BUT, I ain't measured them yet, but they might be, I thought they were, maybe they are, but I am going to measure them, and then we'll know for sure. Man, thats a lot of himmin and hawin aiin't it. I could have said, I don't know but will find out, but I like to explain it out a little as long as people don't mind readin.

Perry, breathtaking...... what a find....., before joining WAGs I had no idea that CI like yours and that on eye candy even existed ..... the quality and care that went into each piece is amazing. I really enjoy the WAGs site I never know what I will see for pictures, But I do know what find and that is a a great bunch of people always ready to help and to offer encouragement and the benefit of their years of collecting to all, WAGs is truly a class act. my thanks to all.
