Anyone got a guess on this shell maker? I've been thru everyone I know and nothing looks right for the logo

Side says 13 D/B and I can make out a 3263 and underneath that an 800, but I think there is more writing.

Today's finds. Nothing mindblowing (no Kiton vicuña), but I think they're still worthy of a share since this officially marks my last thrift run in Guate. So (as usual) there's a little bit of everything ...

And one last luxury piece for $2.50 to close it out: Bally shearling

For anyone interested in what's happening next, I've spoilered the personal updates. If you couldn't care less about the details, I'll just say it's been an amazing and rewarding ride. My thrift life in Guate has allowed me to meet some great people here on SF and beyond and has taught me more than I ever expected to learn. So this feels like a good time to thank you all again for your support when I got started and for selflessly sharing your knowledge along the way. Cheers gang!

So the Guatemala chapter is ending. This Friday to be exact. In 3 days my family and I are moving to New York for at least the next 5 years. My wife was offered a new position in NYC in the organization she works for and after much thought we decided she should accept. And now we're heading north and we'll be living about 30 mins outside the city.

I'm honestly not sure how much time I'll have to hit the stores once I'm up there. And, honestly, there are other projects and opportunities I want to focus on now. But I really hope I can finally meet some of you in person, whether it's for a quick and friendly run to a store or a drink.

Anyway, we're very excited about the move and I'm personally very much looking forward to this next chapter. Thanks again gang and here's to a great 2020!

P.S. I think I made it through that whole post without a single opportunity for a "TWSS" ....

@JohnAAG Congrats to your wife! What a move from Guatemala to NYC. You'll have to get ready for some jacked up NYC thrift prices but I think all that the city has to offer is irreplaceable. Let us know when you've settled in and I'm sure a bunch of us locals will try to make a night of it.
