If you love to go junking…if vintage makes you SMILE…if refurbishing an old beat up piece of furniture makes you happy happy…if a thrifty bargain does your heart good…if you love to see what your friends snatch up at Good Will and garage sales…if you adore a good party…well then you are in the right place…it’s time for another episode of
JUNKIN JOE!
First let’s take a peek at what JJ found this week…he had his regular budget of $5.00 …he spent $5.00…he felt a bit badly since there is nothing here that would really make your heart sing but …but he did get an awesome deal nonetheless!
A great little batch to celebrate Sunday…yes…I know it is Easter and for that I am thankful…but in the house of Cammarata…there are 2 celebrations…it is also
OPENING DAY
Time to PLAY BALL!!!!
Baseball is back and we are thrilled…Monday is opening day for the Yankees…can’t wait!
Ok…nuff of that.
This little package of baseball goodies is one of those tales where JJ goes into The Salvation Army and the man is putting things on the shelves…he has a little bag and it is filled with some baseball goodies…Joe said…I will give you $5 for the bag? DONE…the man handed it to him and he went and checked out! There was a lot of junk…but one really cool piece for my sons collection!
Let’s start with the not so great stuff!
Cans of cards! Yes…cards are in each one!
This is the coolest can in the group…of course it stars
Derek Jeter!!!
Cal Ripken!
Pudge Rodriquez and 3 more!!!
Not exactly vintage…1998 but pretty cool!
Then there was a Starting Line up of Don Mattingly!
Doesn’t do him justice…but we will take it!
This was a score…especially because it is one of Pete’s favorite players of all time!
Then there was this piece…I know…it’s not a Yankee…but a great baseball player Frank Robinson…
a limited edition Sports Illustrated porcelain statue celebrating his
entry into the 500 club…586 Home Runs for his career!!!
There were 5586 made and this one is number 1548 and guess what?…it’s signed!
This one has really nice detail and in great shape!
So it might not be pink…may not be pretty…and it’s no red sewing machine…but JJ hit a
home run with this find according to our son : )
Now it is time to take a peek at some finds from our
friends at Junkin Joe!
