Wool Antique How dangerous is stripping lead paint from antique hardware?
I have been stripping the paint off my old hinges all day. I have been simmering them in baking soda and water in the kitchen with the overhead fan on and windows open and then brushing them with a metal brush outside and then polishing with steal wool. However, I am pretty sure that some of the paint is lead my question is just how dangerous is this. Are the fumes from the boiling bad? The hardware looks amazing and I don't want to give up my project. There are no children, pregnant women, or pets in the house and there will not be for a very long time.
"They" say --the fumes are worse than dust or chips. You need a fan behind you to blow the fumes away from you. The old paint should not be left on the ground. Put it in a jar with a lid and check with you local waste disposal people as to where bring it for proper handling. And yup, really keep it away from the youngsters.

Value of 4 Point Hudsons bay wool coat made in england. Black, yellow, red & green w/ buttons?
I just inherited a large men's woolen vintage hudson's bay jacket. Im trying to figure out the value of it & if it's worth saving or not. Its lined at the shoulders and the tag inside the coat says "this garment is made from genuine hudson's bay point blankets. Made in england" then it has a U.S.A. registry number and a Canadian registry number.
The colors go from the shoulders down in this order: black, yellow, red and then green on a cream/off white background.
Can anyone tell me of a site that I can find the value of these antique jackets or clue me in on how much they usually go for? Thanks
Hudsons Bay has a catalog out, I used to get it years ago. I do know that if you don't want that coat I wish I had it. They have the finest in cold weather clothing on the market. Go to an address for Hudsons Bay and see if you can find it. I would bet a coat like that would be, used, well over $150.00 plus.
