Hopes, dreams and wishes, so at least not every locker can be a huge goldmine. 😉Nonetheless you made some pretty neat finds. But you didn´t tell your lovely viewers how much you paid for the whole lot so they could get an idea of the input- output ratio. 🤑 What, you made another find of German WWII and early post war letters ?! Very good handwriting and easy to read ("Liebes Fräulein Graf..."), so they might be a good source for another "History Behind the Paper" video. Seems that these items know how to find an owner who gives them a new home again. 😃 Have a very good time, and see you on the next one ! 🖐Greets from GER, U.

I was shocked to find those letters! Randomly stored in between the sheet music, tucked away in an envelope. How they got there, not sure, but hopefully their contents will reveal a little story that I can share! Those letters were better than what I found at the flea market today :0) Not every day can be a perfect flea market day, but we keep trying!

Any day with old letters is a good day! (In the short clip when you talked about the letter - ignoring the Halloween on your sweatshirt - you could've been a minister (t-shirt looked like a white collar)). I remember when I got my first job out of school - splurging on a nice briefcase. I carried it for a long time - and thought I was "all that." Then computer bags became ubiquitous. I think I donated it to a thrift store. You are correct about storing flammables - could be a danger to a lot of people including firefighters that might respond to a fire there. And that Tiki torch stuff is awful - a friend's cousin had a - let's just say - very bad experience with it. Fun to see what you bought - and you'll make some money. Never heard of those Cocomelons. They look like Teletubbies knockoffs. Do copyright laws allow a person to replay or use a very small amount of text / video / sound without it being considered infringement? Either way that must be such a pain to keep track of. Thanks for the video - enjoyed them both - hope you have a great Sunday afternoon and start to the week!

For copyright, KZbin picks up after so many seconds (unsure of the exact length). I know in the beginning of my video making, you could barely hear a Cher song playing in the background at a thrift store and I was given a copyright strike. Essentially one either needs to remove the music for that portion or cut that portion out of the video if they want to keep the full monetization for themselves. Otherwise, Cher & her record label would keep some monies made from the video due to her song being played. Luckily KZbin provides us with a large bank of copyright-free songs to choose from or we can pay for songs as well. Funny you mention laptop bags - I also recently donated my laptop bag from my old job. I don't need any memories of that corporate life hanging around! (I also just use one of my vintage bags now anyway.) Hope that you had a wonderful weekend!

I bought 2 different $20 5x5 units last week at the same facility (in same hallway too ) so it was easy pick-up. Various Flea Mrkt stuff and the totes alone at retail would be more than $40.. Was a first for me too. Never found these before. Had a Glass case with about 20 Souvenier spoons displayed in it (Hawaii, Guam, the islands etc ) but altogether must have 150 or more in total. At least they don't take up much space to store... may have them for awhile. LOTS of spoons. Hopefully a few Sterling Silver... fingers crossed

In the same folder there were also more older birth and marraige certificates as well as old letters written during the war, again all german. Maybe it is time to write to you as there is too much to put here in the chat. Good luck with whatever your next adventure is. Gruß aus Berlin 😊

It seems like there were many German speaking people in your area. Have you thought about taking some German classes? Maybe at a Community College? I took it in high school many years ago & still remember some German. I had no trouble learning it & I still have a couple of text books: one even has the German script alphabet in it. (No one I knew spoke German, but was easy for me to learn). How about, at least, buying a couple of used German text books, since you love books, like I do. But I say, take a class, or maybe go to a Rehab Center & ask if anyone there speaks German. These older folks may enjoy the company & you can learn some German 1st hand. Love your videos. I actually found you through Taco Stacks a few years ago!😂

@PaperandMoose 8 ай бұрын

I have 5 years of German language studies - 4 in high school & 1 in college. I recently translated letters from Berlin & that helped me to “relearn” many words that I’ve forgotten over the years. One of the main issues I’ve found is deciphering the handwriting, especially if the ink is worn away over time.

@Joy-u9l6s 8 ай бұрын

@@PaperandMoose thanks for your reply. I had no idea you had taken classes in German. Seems like there is such a heavy German influence in your area. So glad you have found these wonderful German letters that are a part of history & you will be preserving them. Keep up your interesting videos. What ever became of all those high end clothes & such that you found awhile back? It was such a fantastic find. Did one person by buy most of it or did it get pieced out? Keep up the great videos & love that you take so much interest in your finds.
