One persons junk is another persons treasure.

Pharaoh

I had been meaning to browse around at a nearby yard sale held in a barn every weekend, but had never seemed to have the time to do it. This past weekend,  having no particular events to be at I decided to check it out. I found a lot of interesting stuff and took a few photos.

It wasn't until I was editing and posting the photos on social media that I started to realize that some of this stuff wasn't of any value to whoever was getting rid of it, but there was some appeal for it out there. The Pharaoh got immediate attention, and the more I look at the photo, the more I think I will go back and see how much they want for it. That would look really good in my office.

The other item that got attention right after I posted the photo was the metal Gone with the Wind movie poster. Although I am not a fan of that movie, that metal poster would look awesome hung up in a room some place instead of sitting in an old barn.

There were also paintings, Two portraits of ladies that were $300, and one of some guy in a military uniform. I could understand someone buying the ladies portraits, they were signed and painted by someone of some degree of fame apparently, but nobody knew who the uniformed gentleman was or who painted him. To me that would be weird to display but what do I know? He did have nice hair though.

I took a photo of three of the dolls that were there, which to me were interesting, but to my surprise were found to be creepy by some facebook viewers. And tea cups, so many tea cups, and none that matched it seemed. I am not sure who would want tea cups that don't match.


Also interesting was a Cutter, a metal Pirate ship bank and some Harlequin masks. All this stuff was tossed out by one person but another person might be looking for just such a thing. One persons junk really is another persons treasure.
