The Metro Show in New York is noteworthy because of its diversity of high-end offerings, from historical items to outsider art. The three objects pictured here are what I would buy if I were more successful at making money. From top are a hardware store figure from Stephen Score, an African-American desk/secretary from Ricco Maresca, and a sheet metal cowboy trade sign from American Primitive Gallery. The show closes on Sunday.
