TM Traveler jacket, an unlined, cotton sport coat. Way too big for me, but I thought it might be a good thing to wear to work, rather than exposing my tweeds to the dust and grime of the warehouse.

Wife also picked these up. Another paint-by-number for my collection and an older Last Supper with a cool frame. Both a buck or two each.

That's a nice Last Supper, Bob. I love those, they always bring back memories of my childhood and my grandmother. She had them all over the house, along with a couple of Christ in the garden of Gethsemane prints and the obligatory praying hands sculptures and/or plaques in every room. I sure miss her.

Thanks Dale! I used to have one of the lenticular 3-D ones, but my daughter stole it. Similar to this:

Love that you collect paint-by-number paintings. I used to do these in my younger days, spent a lot of time in hospital in my childhood and would paint these to pass the time. Happy (maybe not!) memories of picking out paint-by-numbers sets from the craft store and keeping them for my periodical hospital 'vacations'.

Those are great finds, especially the GS pocket knife. I have the same type from my BSA days, only it has brown plastic grips and a BSA emblem. That badge is interesting too, seems to be an Australian Qantas airline employee bowling (the Brit version of grass bowling) club.

I believe that the match tin is also from Australia.

I love going to thrift stores in places I visit!
Last week I found two great shirts in Houston.
Does anyone have a good lead in Washington DC ?
