Alaska Railroad
Curry Hotel (Curry, Ak.)
(The Curry Hotel was opened in 1923 as a over-night stop in the two-day journey from Seward to Fairbanks (trains didn't
run at night then), and resort destination for sportsmen. It was a popular destination in its own right in the early days, but
was eclipsed by the Mt. McKinley Park Hotel in 1939. It burned down in 1957 - nothing remains today but a cleared area.)

Our Customer Comments
Most major credit cards accepted, Zelle, Paypal as well as checks and money orders, accepted. payment mailing address
Packing - We pack for success, not excuses. We love old railroad/hotel china and relics as much as you do, so we would rather spend a bit more on packing materials (actually, we prefer to use clean recycled packing materials) than see a piece broken in transit.
Our success is collectors getting pieces they want, and only that. Therefore, all sales are allowed a three day inspection period, within which time, unsatisfactory items may be returned for refund.
Sell / Trade - We are always buying (at wholesale prices) - from whole collections to single pieces. Or, perhaps you would like to suggest a trade? If you think that you could suggest a trade, or other "deal," that would be mutually beneficial, we will be happy to hear you out. Maybe you have a piece of train china that doesn't exactly fit with your collection, and we have a piece that does, maybe a deal could be found. Please recall though, that this is a commercial enterprise, so we would find no advantage in a trade for pieces of equal value.
Sales Tax - Ca. orders only. Orders shipped to California addresses must pay applicable sales tax.
Gift Wrap - For an extra $7.00 per gift, we will gift wrap any item(s) and mail it directly to the recipient. Nothing too fancy, but we will box the item(s) and tailor the wrap to the occasion (birthday, Christmas or other), with a "from / to" tag filled out as you specify.
Wants lists - We have railroad china - you want railroad china, but unfortunately, these are not always the same items. If you would care to send us your "want list", we will store it and notify you (e-mail or phone, your choice) if we get that item in stock. There is no obligation on your part - this is only a notification service and interest survey. Send to: Wants lists
All items first come, first served if you like it, you can own it. No false-hope teaser prices, no bidding stress, no sniping everything is "Buy It Now" priced. Prices subject to change without notice.
