On a recent visit to Denver, Bob Swisher discovered the two architectural salvage yards below. On this trip instead of visiting the downtown Denver antique shops he visited two architectural salvage sites and both are for up for sale.
 
Bob described them below:
No. 1 was Queen City Architectural Salvage, 4750 Brighton Blvd, Denver. (303-296-0925), owned by Tom Sundheim. He trades, buys and sells doors, mantels and hardware, plus numerous artifacts. It is an indoor/outdoor operation not well organized and not appealing to the eye.
 
No. 2 was quite the opposite but also for sale: Architectural Salvage Inc., 6460 Stapleton Drive S., Unit A, Denver (303-321-0200). It is very clean, well organized, well lit and a large inventory of old antique authentic lighting, doors, hardware, plumbing fixtures and mantels. The co-owner wife wants to join her co-owner husband in retirement. It is a very comfortable shopping site if you like salvage items. It is much like the Preservation and Conservation Association shop in downtown Champaign, but far bigger.
 
He also visited Dorothy's house and the Yellow Brick Road in the Land of Oz, Liberal, Kansas. Bob is a great lover of antiquing and describes himself as having been a collector since his childhood.
 
The two salvage businesses for sale are also listed in the Salvo U.S. architectural salvage directory which is a great resource for finding architectural salvage showrooms and is regularly updated.
