Salvager: J.P. Morgan's Mantel on eBay

Not everything on eBay is complete crap. Take, for example, this 1880’s hand-carved mantelpiece that allegedly came out of J.P. Morgan’s mansion. No idea if that’s actually true, but the winged griffins on either end a pretty sweet. You can buy it now for $2,300 or wait until the last minute tomorrow to try to sneak in the last bid. And, by the way, if you’ve architectural items taking up space in your basement, remember that we now have a place for you to post them: The Salvage Board on the Brooklyn Record’s Bulletin Boards.
