Guest Photos~Sue

Sue is an avid antique collector who sent photos of some her cages.  I thought I'd add them here so you can see them.  They are wonderful, old works of art.


Sue:  "A pre1900 Osborn complete with seed guard and original feeders and perches!"

Sue:  "A 1882 Revolving Wheel Cage. (Hendryx) I can date this because I have an original catalog page from the F.  Witte Catalog dated 1882. You could have purchased this cage through the catalog."

Sue:  "A early 1900's Hendryx that is very heavy and solid. This cage may for its time been a more expensive cage as the construction is very strong. The feeders are the originals. They have been slightly damaged over time."

Sue:  "A small early Hendryx and a Mushroom Hendryx. Both of these cages are very early. The Mushroom cage has T feeders which may make it pre1900."

Sue:  "These are a few of the cages I would like to display. I really think I can do a better job to make them a visual statement. I collect a variety of antiques. I don't polish them as the original patina is more valuable. It is something only time can do."

Thanks for all of the ideas!!!

Do you see what I mean when I say "art"?  They are wonderful.  Thank you, Sue.

Please feel free to send your pictures to me at tweetthings53@gmail.com along with your descriptions of the cages.  I will add you as a guest.  We'd love to see your cages.
