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

[LaundryRoom]

This from the racks...appears to have never been worn. Someone is asking me which year it's from. How can I tell? My research says from early 70s to early 90s, but any way to narrow it down a little closer? The stamped info below the tag reads "A 022 242-LS"

And these from the bins...

I took a chance that they were just muddy. Somebody didn't feel like dealing with them after his hike...

@LaundryRoom based on the size of the collar, I’d say your Board Shirt is from the mid to late 70s.

Damn the Spice Girls looked rough even in prime.

Thread first? Unravel Project by Ben Taverniti. Looks to be the same factory as Rick.

That basket full of Samuelsohn sport coats I posted on Thursday have already started to sell off for me so I figured I'd stop by a local consignment shop that always underprices their footwear to see if I could find anything interesting.

Why hello sexy...

Spoiler: the scaly details

Also joining the family

And a couple Wolverine 1,000 mile boots that will need to find their way to eBay (sz 7D) once I get them polished up.

Okay crew, especially the art guys and maybe literature, found something which could be very interesting.
So I won an online estate sale auction which had dozens of posters and prints. I liked it because there was a signed Leroy Neiman print although not in great condition but I like Neiman stuff.
Anyway, picked up the lot today and while mostly filled with junk, there was a small folded piece of paper with 12 sketches.

Numbered 1 thru 12 and I took the back of the last one because they all have that collection director stamp.
Now, a little research tells me that Federico Garcia Lorca was a Spanish poet who was assassinated in 1927. His famous work was Romancero Gitano and pics online of sketches are very similar to these. These do look old but I am cautious to get too excited they could be originals of some kind.
So, what might any of you know or think about these?
Very much appreciated and keeping my fingers crossed.

man I wish I could help more but this is a have to have it in my hand to look over it closely, and even then I don’t know enough about this artist to give anything other than a guess. what I can say is that they look good enough that if they were mine, I’d show them to several auction companies.

I’d start by contacting Swann Galleries, and maybe Rago-Wright, as well.

Thank you. I have sent emails with pics to the two galleries mentioned by 330ck. Will keep everyone in the loop.

 

[Nobilis Animus]

For what it's worth, I like the sketches. I'd probably keep them either way.
