This is an unassuming gem of a sale tucked into a large condo in Saddlebrook, located just off Kanuga Rd. coming out of downtown Hendersonville. The gentleman was a university professor who studied marine geology and the lady was a seamstress and quilter.  This is not what you expect in a condo; here loads of small items fill two floors and a garage.  They were both the family archivists, so there are great pictures and ephemera.  Some of the effects go back two generations nearly to the turn of the 20th Century.
