Fun fleamarket shopping today

Collector rejoice being able to go to a flea market after all these months. It wasn't busy and everyone was wearing a mask, sanitizing our hands and keeping our distance. I was in heaven. I spent a good amount of time browsing and finally picked up some cute pieces. One of the is this wonderful cigar display which shows that it was the property of Imperial Tobacco. It displays my cards nicely or maybe my inks.....we'll see.

The other item was a wall mounted metal Bills, letter & misc sorter. This will be for cards being worked on close to my desk after they have dried.

and these hand made sample needlepoint I believe.

and this old bucket

and last piece which is so retro my little Solid State mini transistor. Its a little temperamental about its positioning but I love it when it finds the signal.

so sad that this little baby screeches for a long time b4 being able to find any station
