Now, I am far from being a toy collector, although that kind of interest surely floats from the murky depths now and again (often from my own pursuit of such nonsense), and I do have to say that over the weekend, my attendance at the flea market was fueled by a desire for three things- ties, silk scarves with tassels, and, yes, toys. Unfortunately, I was unable to score on the first two counts, but was able to come home with seven new (or, really, used) little friends, monsters all (well, including a robot). What fun, and all for a dollar or so (except for the fellow on the far right, who was double price, priced according to popularity, perhaps?)
Notice that I did not mention books, which is the normal scavenger item of my desire. Well, given that english books are hard to come by, I was not expecting any First Edition (or any edition) William Faulkner works to be had- although one day, I hope I will be proved absolutely wrong.
