Angel

Not too sure what I was expecting with that cover. Something better or worse. I would have taken either. Okay is not what I thought it would be. Oh well.

Turns out that the book I was so psyched to see at the thrift store yesterday I already had. I forgot. Oh well. Back to the thrift store with it.

sketchbook

I found a sketchbook at the thrift store. I was glad to see it was already started by a nine-year-old by the name of Julia.

I found this yearbook at a local thrift store.

The number one reason I would’ve wanted to go to Great Neck North Senior High School:

I bought it for the pictures.

The Truth?

The best thing I found at the thrift stores this afternoon. 40 cents! A bargain! I would’ve paid a dollar for it! The book, not the herpes. I’ve already got them. They were free! Exclamation point!

Portraits

family portrait

I found this great Olan Mills family portrait at a thrift store. 40 cents later and it was mine. I wasn’t a big fan of the frame so I was going to move the picture into another one and I found these other two photos behind it. I’m guessing this one is for a high school yearbook photo or something:

And this one, this one is the best. Of ever.

Gas

Another thrift store find from the other day was this book on gas warfare from 1975:

I haven’t gotten around to reading it yet, but I pretty much got it for the pictures anyways. Like this guy in an early French gas mask. It was pretty much just 32 layers of the finely woven cotton fabric muslin.
