$1 garage sale score: treasures in an old Skippy jar
Mister Jalopy bought this glass peanut butter jar filled with little treasures at a garage sale for $1, and photographed each item individually, using his great close-up photography set-up. A dirty rubber band never looked so good.
LinkThis jar houses the collected treasures of Mr. Frankie Bartoli of Chicago, Illinois and was sold to me by his family for $1. I bought it because the Smithsonian had not stopped at the garage sale prior to my arrival. But, like the Smithsonian would have, I took a photo of every single item inside.
