From an HKFM shopper's perspective...

We always enjoy seeing Hell's Kitchen Flea Market shopper's personal photos from their shopping experience. The latest photos to come our way from Courtney Ann's blog are excellent.

Don't forget to follow us on on Flickr!

A Collection a Day, 2010

Check out the latest addition to our Style & Design blogroll. Whether painted, illustrated, or photographed Lisa Congdon is offering a daily view into her diverse vintage home collections from January 1st-December 31st, 2010. From mini wooden bowling pins to vintage family photographs spend some time viewing a A Collection a Day.

The Disappearing Face of New York

Check out the new book of photography, Store Front: the Disappearing Face of New York.

One of the great things about the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood near Hell's Kitchen Flea Market is that there are still mom and pop stores and restaurants. Their storefronts are a welcome relief from the sterile, glossy, corporatism of so much commercial property in Manhattan.

"Street Smarts" preview - Oct 11 & 12

Enjoy a special preview of "Street Smarts," a photography exhibition by Michel Leroy featuring paired vendors and objects from Hell's Kitchen Flea Market.

Stop by HKFM this weekend to view several actual photos from Michel Leroy's digital photo exhibition, "Street Smarts."

And stay tuned for the debut of the complete "Street Smarts" online exhibition: more than two dozen portraits of some of your favorite HKFM vendors of antiques, vintage clothing, mid-century modern antiques, jewelry, collectibles, silver, and more! (Photo: Steve, vintage wall clock. Michel Leroy. 2008. Click to enlarge.)

V-v-vintage

Vintage Violent visited the flea market last Saturday (say that three times real fast) for her website.

Brrrrr. Was cold last Saturday at the market!

You can view a slideshow of her market pics here.

Earth Weekend at the market

This is a picture of the cab that people painted on Earth Weekend at the market.  It came out very nice!

Hell's Kitchen Flea Market mysteries

Here's a photo snapped of a vendor and customer at Hell's Kitchen Flea Market. FleaSpeech is curious to know what sort of lamps those were on the table. (And was the bike for sale, or did it belong to a vendor? *Grin* Anyway, we love the yellow!)
