$10 flea market find worth $100,000
As reported in The New York Post (and on CNN.com)
A $10 flea-market picture of some flowers proved far more valuable when original handwritten lyrics to the patriotic song "My Country 'Tis of Thee" turned up in the picture's backing, a downtown [Manhattan] document dealer said yesterday.
The picture was purchased at the West 25th Street Market. The lyrics document was valued at $100,000.
With flea markets, you're sometimes treasure hunting and don't even know it!
