I found a post on Craigslist for a garage sale advertising they had ephemera! I headed over and boy did he have ephemera, tons of stuff! I didn't even know where to start. I checked out his books, he really didn't have a lot of books but he wanted $1 each, I was kinda surprised but they were nice books. He had magazines, records, electronics, newspapers, and lots of vintage papers. Everything I picked out he mention how rare or expensive it was...ugh. So I went to a smaller box of various papers and started to sort through them. Omg! so cool. I showed his this railroad receipt book, he said all the railroad stuff is expensive! So I'm thinking my $20 isn't gonna go far as his prices! He didn't have anything marked and I don't like to barter at garage sales. Because most of the time things are priced cheap to get rid of. i got a small pile of stuff and five books for $10 and I said "cool" and then he said I should of said $15 knowing you aren't gonna barter! My impression is he was not having a garage sale to empty out his garage but to kill some time and see what he could make. He did tell me he was a dealer. The other thing he told me was his wife makes junk journals with all this cool stuff.
