      This is life. With all the people dying of covid, family members could care less about cleaning out homes and having sales. Thank goodness Renee had the presents of mind and wherewith all to stop otherwise these wonderful items would be in the landfill.

    I commend you on not knocking on the door. You know that sad stuff could be going on inside and that is why this glorious stuff was thrown out. It always lifts my heart to see you looking at the treasures like a small child on Christmas morning. It was heart-breaking that the lady would not agree to you taking the pictures, I am sure there was a reason for it, but the loss of art does hurt. Keep picking. You never know what the next bag or box might bring.

    • @PaperandMoose
      @PaperandMoose  2 года назад +2

    Munsingwear was a sports brand back in 1960's 70's lots of pro golfers wore . and mid century elves. Can't believe people don't know about how popular mid century decorations are. Guess they don't think about recycling cardboard boxes or don't care vintage bathing suits are used for decoration at old beach houses hang on wall or in frame. IZOD skirt depending the astronaut poster could be worth some $$$ Mercury Gemini or Apollo very collectible.

    I think that you,by not going to the door, are a true trash picker. Choosing only to interact with the home owners when they approach you, is a good way to go. You’ve definitely got the gift for finding the goods. I would think if you’re ever in need of content, you could do a video on trash picking fails COMPILATION. Some people who are new to your channel, might not know THAT sometimes... you are just a trash hauler. LOL ! Lastly, when my mother in law passed, only the kids went to do the clean out. I know for sure, there were elves in the guest bedroom closet. When I asked about Christmas... my sis in law said, “oh, that stuff was so old we threw it away.”
    I was crushed. I think of that every time you spot elves in your treasure hunting.

Thank heaven for persons like us who treasure and save these vintage items which could end up in landfills! Jansen...a big name in women's bathing suits. My mom had three of that brand.

I always enjoy my favorite trio of pickers: You, Dee, and Taco! Taco was the first I viewed...he got me "hooked" on trash picking videos! Now, I do it (T.P.), on a VERY limited basis, as there is so little stuff left out and rummaging is considered stealing from items left for scheduled pickups by Recology, our scavenger service! Despite that, I've been a bad boy at times! Just could not pass up a couple of neat vintage radios, albums of old 78 records....and, and...yes...a small fr-g collection!!!!!

    I bought 2 tree hugger elves off eBay a couple years ago. I love them. I think my mom has stuff in her garage to go through.

    You've got enough elves to have your own Christmas elf village. :)
