syms?

Affirmative.

seems right...anyone else?

Syms, it was their in-house rebrand. Hideous label.

 

[Denton]



Can't decide is I like or hate this PRL. MoP cats eye buttons and probably too many details

PM'd, if M or L get at me.

This chick might be clinically insane, but....


"CBC News repeatedly reached out to Khan for a response, but the store owner continued to reply by saying she would only give a response if she received $25,000."

^I respect her hustle here though.

Military guys -

I found this piece of handiwork recently. It appears to mark the military service of Joe Lentini, while he was serving in Korea in '59-60. I don't know what it is beyond that, unless it was just a bit of carving and painting someone did to occupy free time? It is wood, about 14" long, semi-ovoid at the handle end, tapering to a narrow round point and carved in a spiral.

What is it? What purpose might it have served?

Doesn't this have 8 folds, not 7? Or do I need to go back to grammar school?

Edit: Just found the maker on the back of the material label. Roffe Accessories. Looks like Spoo sold one last month.
