space was busy all day long!!!

of positive energy and were truly one of the sweetest couples I have ever met!!!

• find the item in one of the vendor's booths . . .
  

• it will say "Found" on the tag and will not have a price . . .

• bring it to the cashier at the main entrance . . . we will verify it, take your picture for an upcoming blog post on all the winners . . .

• and then the best part . . . you get to keep it!!!! :)

The Finders Keepers items for the Seabold Vintage Market Fall-Flea 2009 are as follows . . .

from left . . . old metal "in-basket", leather "le jockey club" paris binoculars (one of my very first personal finds ever), wooden butter press, ironstone butter-pat, metal flower frog, and old cream jar . . .
