Saturday Yardsales

[mhatchett]

I was off today and hit a couple of thrift stores. Nothing I can retire on but some fun adds. I'm especially pleased with the Folio set of Georges Simenon's Maigret.

Slim pickings until the end, when I found a couple of books and this gargoyle. Happy hunting guys!

Hello Ray Bradbury Friends. I wanted to share this find this morning. I was nosing around in a thrift store, as I am want to do and stumbled across this. It just shouted Carnival and Bradbury at me!! For $12.00 I couldn't pass it up! My weekend is off to a great start, hope yours's is as well!

I love all those bookends ... especially the art deco leaning nude woman and the woman with the arched back ... really, really cool!

[Brian861]

Pretty cool, Andrew.

I always worry about bookends with anchors that go under the books.

Here are my bookends in case anyone's a fan of the PC puzzle-game, Portal.

Nice stuff! The owls and the Shattered Sea books are great, and love all the bookend pics!

All those bookends are really cool!

[mhatchett]

Too cool! I'm such a sucker for Bookends. I'm always amazed at how expensive they are sometimes.

Those bookends are a cool find...I love unusual brass bookends. Here are a few of mine (excuse the dust...these are on top of my tall barrister bookcases and so see sporadic dusting at best):

[ATTACH=CONFIG]18498[/ATTACH]Alright, Yard Sale season has kicked into gear. I picked these neat old metal owl bookends up yesterday, along with the Robert Ripley Book. I Loved the Gold Key Comic book of Ripley's Believe it or Not and who can forget Jack Palance from the TV show. The custom slipcase for Joe Abercrombie came from Kim and Camelot books! Have a great week![ATTACH=CONFIG]18495[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]18496[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]18497[/ATTACH]

Love the bookends and the Ripley book!

Picked up the Complete Gary Larson at a thrift store yesterday $8.00! The books are huge, almost 20 pounds. Put the James Ellroy there for scale. Love Larson.[ATTACH=CONFIG]17583[/ATTACH]

That Larson collection is fantastic!!!! That and the Complete Calvin and Hobbs are priceless.

[TacomaDiver]

Wow! That's beyond a good deal. Congrats!
