Halloween 1981

July 11, 2010

FOUND by John Y. in Austin, Texas

When you live in a neighborhood that is always under construction, you find that people will use the construction dumpsters for their own stuff. I found this in a box of photos along with all sorts of personal stuff. Most of it looks as if it was dumped after cleaning out the attic.

Nose Pills

December 23, 2007

FOUND by Rick Lee in Charleston, West Virginia

Found this next to a gas pump a few days after Christmas. Did he lose the list before he finished his shopping? Did he remember those nose pills and the lip stuff? The note is written on a Post-It that says “Betapace AF” on it. That’s a drug to treat heart arrhythmias.

Monkee Astronaut

November 28, 2007

FOUND by Jake in Burlington, Vermont

I found this in a book (a bookmark?) while I was looking through an old library collection at an estate sale. 1954 is typed on the back, that’s it. It seems so lonely, like no one else exists in this world, but someone is taking the picture. It seems sad that the plane is tipped up on an edge like its crashed. Also the expressionless monkey mask creeps me out.
