Default The results of my most recent treasure hunt

Posted By: Dennis W.

I was on a business trip this week in D.C. and decided to make a detour into Fredricksburg just to see what treasure awaited me there in the thrift stores and antique shops. The results:

An advertising piece for Arbuckle coffee. The size of a post card. Paid $1:





Got a good deal on this Tinker pin (small letters variety):



And lastly and slightly O/T. A photo of what could be Jesse James. The St. Louis based photographer (J.H Fitzgibbon) was in business in the 1870's and history shows James was in St. Louis during that time frame. It measures approx 2 1/2" x 4". Paid $1.



Also scored bunches of WWI and other stuff. If you're ever in that area it's worth a stop.
