Just a quick note of thanks to everyone that came by the Pop Up Flea. It was a helluva good time for all involved. I want to also send a big thank you to Randy Goldberg, a truly great partner and a man among boys. The event would be nothing without Randy’s smarts, humor and good nature. Goldberg is everything I want to be when I grow up.
Before we get back to our regularly scheduled programming I wanted to post some photos from the weekend. I hope you enjoy.

I have that set of Pheasant glassware. I’m in Texas. Whoever bought that set is obviously my soul mate. Also, the man at the Billkirk table with the glasses – swoon.

I would like to thank Michael and Randy for putting together such a wonderful event.
It was a really nice mix of recognizable brands and little guys like me, but universally the people behind each company were warm, kind and humorous. Truly a great group of folks, and I certainly credit the organizers for the good karma flowing through the space.

Oakstreet by far were the best and most friendly of your vendors. Customer SERVICE people means not sitting there on your iPhones.

This yrs flea was such a success. Bringing out the best of the young and upcoming. Two brands stayed with me even after I left the flea, Stanley & Sons and Scout Original. Both are hand made goods made right here in the good ole U S of A. Scout Original was be far the most creative of the flea. These guys were hammering (names, numbers, fuckyous) into metal coins while you strolled thru the rest of the flea. Not to mention, their clothing is so next level. I’m really looking forward to 2011 and this culture of MADE IN THE USA.

We do have a kinda PUF in England for vintage and mid century modern furniture (www.modernshows.com) but it’d be great to have something for clothing and accessories too
