welcome to the lake sign/key rack

CateP · 07-29-2011, 09:31 AM

Not to hijack this thread, but since we're talking about lake decor, can anyone recommend a place where I can get a great map of Winnipesaukee and the surrounding towns? Not looking for a nautical chart.

Also interested in retro 50's-60's lake advertisements/ travel posters.

The old country store on the corner of 109 and 25 in Moultonboro. Huge selection.

The Country Carriage in Mill Falls should have a wonderful selection. I worked for them (at a different store) when I was in high school.Wonderful store!

Signs - Black's in downtown Wolfeboro and some store with Moose in the across the parking lot from Dockside in Wolfeboro.

Maps - Moultonboro Country Store. I saw a ton of them on Thursday.

There is a new store right at the docks facing the parking lot that has some good stuff in the windows. This is in the place where the Great Water's bank tried to start up. Looks like they would have what you may be looking for.

I particularly liked the sign in the window that says:
Welcome Friends (Relatives By Appointment)

Hey lakershaker. I see you are from Simsbury CT. My parents live there and that's where I grew up. I have friends in Melvin Village from there too! Also, Lady Jane (forum name) taught art classes there. (I was one of her students). Lots of Simsbury folks up in the lakes region. Odd, for such a small town.

Small world! I grew up in Mass, but have been here for almost 10 years. I was just saying to my wife this weekend how surprised I was to see so many CT license plates on cars around the lake. It's a bit of a long drive, and unless I grew up coming up here and had so much family around, not sure if I'd be able to justify the weekly trip...

hancoveguy - Try the Moultonboro Country Store.

The Antique Emporium in Laconia (Main St.) may have something like the the items you're describing, but that can be hit or miss...
