Found This Week: Every Name
Thirty-seven things went live since the last one of these. Twenty are Japanese phone cards. The other seventeen are shirts, a few VHS tapes, some shades, a cap, and a mug. No story from the desk this week. Nothing came in to quote.
Union J Dilla names tee, $150
Black Union tee. J Dilla, Dilla Dawg, Jay Dee and Pay Jay stacked in white across the front, and a small Firecracker figure print at the upper back by the collar. Tagged M, about 19 inches pit to pit, 27.5 long. Used, nine photos. (Four names on one shirt. Most people manage one.) Here.
Three silk shirts, $19.99 each
All 100% silk, all tagged L, all short sleeve. Three different shirts. Joseph & Feiss is the clean one: tan and rust stripe with a tonal jacquard swirl, carved square buttons, lightly worn, no holes, no stains. On The Brink is navy and teal with pale green medallions, and the label says washable. Rinnovato by NAK is deep green with rust and tan shapes, and it has small tears near the placket plus marks on the care tag, so read the photos before you read the price. (Twenty bucks for silk. The tears are the discount.)
Krooked Shmoo Shades, $25
Krooked character printed on the inside of the arm. Width 14.5 cm, lens 5 cm. Blue is new with original packaging, five in stock. Black is new, three in stock. Two colors, one pair of shades. (Eight pairs total. This is not a one-of-one, and the post is not going to pretend it is.)
Yamaha Generators strapback, $25
Tan twill crown, navy brim, embroidered Yamaha tuning fork on the front, GENERATORS across the back. Nissun Cap, made in the Philippines, brass buckle. Light fading on the crown, brim and sweatband clean. Twelve photos. (A promo cap for a generator. Somebody kept it clean for decades.) Here.
Mountain Hardwear plaid, $30
Blue, navy and slate plaid with one yellow stripe. 95% polyester, 5% elastane, tagged M, made in Vietnam. Lightly worn, all buttons present. (Reads as flannel. Wears like a trail shirt. The tag is the tiebreaker.) Here.
Two phone cards, $45 each
Adult-tagged, so the museum register applies. Mind Puppet, Yukari Esaka: unused, standard size, magnetic stripe and unit scale on the back, three photos. E-opperS, Oh! great, Young Magazine Uppers: same condition, face printed with the magazine name in katakana, three photos. (Two titles, two cards. The $45 does not care which magazine.) Everything else in this lot, from $15 to $35, is at the search.
The $5 shelf
Eight cards went up at $5, all unused gravure cards, all from the weekend. Weekly Young Sunday has two Miho Yoshioka cards, and they are not the same card: "m" Vol.1 and "Pinnacles". The rest are Weekly Young Jump 21st Anniversary, Young Champion, Cross Culture, a 1994 Asahi Kasei Sunny Ride card and a 1997 Keikyu campaign card. (Five dollars each. The lowest price on the store, and the most photos per dollar.)
Two $15 shirts
The Volcom Stone baseball jersey: black, gray felt script across the chest, STONE embroidered underneath, tagged L/G, light fuzzing on the felt. The brown monkey tee: yellow bubble lettering telling you to think of yourself as a beautiful monkey, tagged L, 100% cotton. (One is a skate shop dugout. The other is life advice. Fifteen each.)
Still up, still cheap
Three VHS tapes at $6.99: Anaconda, Blues Brothers 2000 and Nothing to Lose. A Nike hoodie at $20. And from last week, the Fullmetal Alchemist Volume 1 tin and the Evangelion Tamagotchi, $20 each. Thirty sealed Kite Liberator DVDs at $15. Same disc, thirty times.
