ArtistJohn Bauers

     This past month the Antique Warehouse had artist and pin striper, John Bauers, of Bauers Studios, enhance several antiques in the AW collection.  Above John is seen putting the finishing touches on one of the fire hydrants in our collection.  John also worked on a police and fire call box as well as a few parts for the current restoration project, the Cretors Style Popcorn Wagon.  Below are a few images of John working his magic and bringing the simple lettering and outlines of these pieces to life.  The before and after images of each of these items show the difference made with just a touch of paint in the right spots.
