Good Friday

From an awesome hospital benefit yard sale on Friday:

Andy Warhol 1971 Tate Gallery exhibition lithograph. A woman we were talking to told us, "I remember the old Tate and even if you were 100 years old and on your death bed they wouldn't give you the pensioners discount. But that's a great poster."



A Dansk teak ice bucket and pepper mill, both designed by Jens Quistgaard, a 70's California polished wood box, and 5 teak trays made in Sweden. 

Three old unsigned geometric/color studies. They might be Josef Albers, they might be a 7th graders, but they're cool and they're old and they were $5 each.
