An advertising apron with a definite Fedora Lounge slant

[skyvue]

I came across an interesting item yesterday at a flea market in Manhattan. The vendor had several vintage aprons with advertising on them -- short ones with pouches at the bottom of the type a news dealer might wear to keep change in. Several of them appealed to me (though not, alas, at the prices the guy was asking), but I thought this one might be of particular interest to my fellow Loungers.

You didn't get that one??? What was he asking?

Oh, I was tempted, believe me -- until I inquired after the price.

He was asking $140.

Pity.

...but you're right...a silly price to ask.[huh]

Great apron!
I would definately buy it. [spit take] $140?
I'm glad you shared the photo instead.

Sincerely,
The Wolf

LOVE IT! :eusa_clap

The best part is ... now we know they're out there, better prices on them will be found. I never would have thought to look prior to this post.

Fire up the BBQ! Pour papa a beer.
