The Official Thrift / Discount Store Bragging Thread Part III (Sept 2018-)

[Nataku]

It’s been a bit slow lately (end of the year used to be primo for thrifting, but that’s taken a huge turn and over the past 6-7 years, it’s dwindled down to almost unnoticeable). I was fortunate enough to stumble into some goodies yesterday, though.

Love these old Mt St Helen’s tees.

This is my favorite tshirt find in a long time. 70’s Hanes tie dye.

Some 50’s military OG-107 uniforms. Type 1 jackets and 1 pair of type 1 pants (button fly).

One jacket had a little surprise. It came with a free wasp’s nest.

Atari 5200. Going to be fun cleaning this up. I have an empty 5200 box from last summer that finally has purpose

1981 AKG K40. Needs new foam ear pieces, but has the original box and manual.

Beautiful antique dove tailed library card cabinet.

Cleaned up nicely.

Also found an early 90’s Apple IIsi. Cleaning this absolutely disgusting keyboard up as we speak.

Last, but certainly not least. Here’s this guy. Definitely could have been in worse condition, considering the environment it has been stored in. Looks like it was worn and loved as well (worn through in a few areas). Definitely worth saving, though! Big thanks to @Letric for some insight on this!

Following that vintage theme, anyone have any idea on this stripe fabric? Obviously in the style of HBC but I can’t find anything with the continued repeated stripes color pattern. One side is selvedge. Over 10 yards and 47” wide.
There are no makers marks or anything that I can see to identify manufacturer.

Also this dope striped denim fabric. About 2.5” yards of it.

Found both along with some other older stuff in the GW bins 1.5 years or so ago. I’m not sure if I already posted before but recent convo with one of my resident heroes (Nataku) brought it back to mind.

I looked for hours back when found and just spent a few more hours early this morning and come up empty.

How old is that Pendleton? Looking up comps, it appears to be possibly 100 years?

Yep. @Letric mentioned that it is 1910's-1930's. I found a black label Pendleton shirt a year or two ago and someone on here mentioned the black label was about that era as well (1910's-1920's).

Anyone near Joliet, IL? Seems like this would be worth a peek. (And a proxy for that Martin if it's reasonably priced???) https://www.estatesales.net/IL/Joliet/60435/3528684

A clutch of really nice, like new,Thom Sweeney shirts. Think the first two are bespoke as there’s no sizing info.

Never seen Eidos label like this, inner tag looks like isaia. Is this the same Eidos?

Found decent trousers. But don't know the maker, is this someone notable ?
