Brooklyn Flea has the pleasure of a rummage with a strong visual edit. Old comics, vinyl and boxes of matchbooks feel less like leftovers and more like raw material for a very New York mood board.
Look for objects with typography: packaging, signs, paper and record sleeves. They carry a place and period instantly, even when the object itself costs very little.
FIELD NOTE
Walk the full market before committing to a large purchase. Small paper finds are easy souvenirs and excellent conversation starters.
