Okay boys I promised some awesomeness...
Sorry if its too many pics but im on my phone.i will break it up into sections.
First how about this bad boy.weighs a ton.
ChetB or 330 any ideas on maker.I know ive seen these before just cant place it...

First thought was Mies Barcelona but that ain't right...if you were in an airport in the 1990's, that might be where you saw them. Hah! But that's totally what it reminds me of - vintage United Airlines gate seating.

I'd reckon if from a club or joint they'd have more wear / damage, but who knows...it just says "utilitarian waiting area" to me...functional, but not overly comfortable, and too thin to have been for home use. Which is no knock on it - that sort of stuff makes great display nowadays.

**** that would be so good in my store.

You mean in my house.

Found this today.

Cuggi/Coogi wool sweater made in Australia, it appears to be pre 1987 when the company changed its name from Cuggi to Coogi. Is anyone able to tell me a more precise date?





I did find a small hole in the back of the sweater but overall it is in pretty good condition given it's age.

More backlog, apologies for one or two items already posted.



























Genuinely like this LL Bean more than the Burberry.









@Fueco I don't know what I'm doing but I think this is good, right?









Pics don't do this fabric justice. It's amazing.







Wild, this was from a long time ago in Texas.





Usually don't pick up old YSL but I know every once in a while the older pieces are good. This one certainly looked the part. Too bad it's too snug (somewhere between 36-38)

No, this was in a pretty bad part of town. I've seen dealers and hookers around here plenty of times, but I had to call the cops recently because I saw someone getting strangled a block away.

 

[barrelntrigger]

Oh damn, some more excitement on top from kopping grails!?

 

[jumpman1231]

I've not found much in my size lately to keep. So I decided today I needed to get out to get a little birthday luck. What I found was someone donated a handful of stuff my size and a few things a little snug on the pants but still nice to send out. Gotta like the birthday luck!
Most suits on left and jacket is hickey. Also not pictured found two pairs of ae shoes.
