My 16 yr old daughter came in from school and asked if we could put the bikini top on her jeep...I said I would if we could go for drive...so off we went.  We turned a corner in a subdivision and saw a big garage sale going on.  I started rummaging through the stuff and ask how much....ended up getting the brand new torch set for 20.00(new 250.00),  the 5 books of 45 records...most look like they have never been used...but none have dust covers...1.00 a book!!!!,   the magnifier is bausch and laumb...1.00, the three motorola walkie talkies and chargers...4.00 total!!! found out that two work.  Sander with two stacks of sandpaper...5.00. Sears drimel tool...5.00, the little box had 1 set of silver cufflinks and 2 -.925 silver rings...5.00!  Also bought 2 portable airtanks for 5.00 each.....then I ran outta money! LOL I told I like the pic so he threw that in for free!  It is like thin copper and the artist is R Butler....anybody have a clue about this artist?

Nice score Kieth! 

It only takes one good garage sale to make up for all of the other bad ones!

 I have been looking for walkie-talkies, just like the ones you got.   icon_thumleft

That etching reminds me of Andrew R. Butler's work.

He was a Arizona artist that did those type of etchings. I don't know how he signed his name though.

Nice Jeep  icon_thumright

Wish it would stop raining up here so I can cruise with the top down.
