Just got back from 4 fab days in Brimfield. This sign pretty much sums it up.
There were books ...
and flash cards (got some of these)
and paper galore
and cigarette cards (got 2 binders of these!)
Found a very cool piece in the discard pile ... found out it was an old egg incubator. I had to have it. I took it apart with a screwdriver. Right there. Behind the port-o-potties. (Sometimes it's a little frightening what I'll do for a good find!)
So many pieces with little drawers and doors and cubbies!
Fabric *G*A*L*O*R*E
(had to have some of that, too)
MUD! It rained pretty much nonstop the first 2 days I was there. See what I'll do for treasures!
This scene is typical of what you'd see when you'd walk into a tent. I had my paperbag handy in case of hyperventilation.
Type!
Love the way these teacups were displayed.
Last day.
OMGosh - the egg incubator was in the DISCARD pile!!!??? Great score for you!!! Love the teacups, and the cigarette cards - if you have any dogs and/or horses- I'm interested! Went to Brimfield for a fabulous weekend in the mid 1970's I think it was. It looks like it is even more fabulous now!!!
