    Cool swap meet/garage sale pickups

    I went to the Rose Bowl swap meet today and figured I would start a thread for folks to post up cool finds from swap meets and garage/estate sales!

    I got this mosaic today. It is HEAVY (30lbs or so) and about 2 feet tall. No idea how old it is, but thought it was cool.



    Also picked up a couple of old small tintypes. I thought these two were the creepiest of the bunch.



    I go this skull from a local swap meet. It is hand carved jade type rock.



    Cool wood mask I found as well:


    What have you all found? Remember, pics or it did not happen!

    I love to go to tag sales/ flea markets and such. I dont have my own place though so cool stuff like that wouldnt fit into my bedroom that i already share with 5 snakes and my very understanding brother. Ive gotten a few pretty sweet football cards/memorbilia from flea markets that people dont really know the true value of. Sports autographs/memorbilia collecting is my only other hobby really besides herps.

    EDIT: BTW i love the mosaic you got. Very cool. My stepdad loves it too, hes into medieval, dragons, knights, swords etc. All that crap lol.
