I'm a thrift store, flea market junkie. Luckily i'm also an Art junkie. Yesterday I spotted a Benton Spruance signed #'d lithograph (1 of 35)
and paid only 6 bucks. It's worth about $800. Gonna throw it on
ebay.
Anyone else care to share their thrift store "big finds" ?

Nice! I'm the same.. And my favorite show (the only one I actually try to get home in time to watch) --- Antiques Roadshow :)

I tend to hang onto my finds though. Wish my memory was better, but can never remember the artists names when out digging around.

I got a lot of old movie star photos signed and pre printed from the 40's and 50's paid $50 got a bunch of avg stuff til I noticed a 1944 soldiers diner at the actors guild Mascars ball program hosted by fred niblo (director of ben hur from the 20's) and a young Frank Sinatra. Program was designed and donated by walt disney. Had it appraised from $1500-$5000 depending on who I asked. Going to ebay it soon.
