The Photo Lot
There are certain things that make my heart race at an antique market.
This pile of photos is the perfect example. All tied up. And a very unusual french price.
10 Euros. I had to double check. It looked like it might be 70 Euros. I have seen loads of photos in French markets that were 10 Euros each. So the pile was too good to be true.
So into my bag it went. Not to be opened until I was home in my studio.
Yesterday I went through them. I can't tell you just how many of the photos I have already fallen in love with. Each individually wrapped in protective plastic. I set a few of them out for a quick photo.

happy scanning, you lucky girl!!!
I will give you my first born in exchange for a stack.
Excuse me while I wipe the drool of my chin..............
What a great find!
Welcome home!!! and yes, you got a truly fabulous deal!!!
Oh, and I'm with Irene. You are very welcome to my firstborn also. Um, at this point for 1 photo.... she's gotten to be so expensive to keep :)Oh, but I probably shouldn't tell you that.... I've never been good at negotiating a price......
There's a certain sadness about family photos being sold in a market, don't you think? But at least they will become a part of an art piece.
WHAT A FIND!!! LOVE IT!!
