Flea Market Astrology

What's your sign? These vintage (1950's?) zodiac-themed glasses (with ice bucket) were spotted at Hell's Kitchen Flea Market recently.

Yahoo Travel talks about Annex markets!

“The flea market for the well heeled. Antique furniture, vintage jeans, furs, costume jewelry, linens, cameras, records and assorted what have you. Mingle with supermodels, hipsters and creative types. Every weekend, rain or shine, dealers from the tristate (that's New York , New Jersey and Connecticut ) area converge in Chelsea to hawk their wares. Prices are steep by flea standards but be sure to haggle; if you come back at 5p chances are the dealer will give you a better price…”

Bill goes to the market

A trip to the Annex Markets - as featured in Time Out New York this past week

From the article, "Old Schooled" (by Daniel Holloway) - "[Bill] can tell by sight the decade in which a set of chairs was made (the 1930s), and explains the significance of a carving of a naked woman (a medicine doll, used by Chinese patients to show doctors where on their body they felt pain)."

Success at NYC fleas

"TheSoulOfHope" posted about her successful hunting at Hell's Kitchen Flea Market and The Garage on the blog Tag Sale Tales.

Here's her self-portrait snapped at HKFM.

At The Garage, Soul Of Hope was able to find a great old photo album to intrigue and inspire her with its contents.
