    I live in Oklahoma where Woodie Guthrie is from. Ironically I was in Indiana this week and my family and I went to the bins on Franklin in Indianapolis. It was my first time to ever visit a bins. It was a wild and fun experience.

      It was nice to have a 'designated area' whereas most bins have spots that the shoppers sorta create on their own. Felt super organized.

      @ARuralSquirrel  Рік тому +2

      My friend Kris, who has been in several of my videos before, has a cool funky vintage shop! I'd thought about giving it to him. His clientele in Boulder would dig it. I actually learned that it was a statement that singer, Woody Guthrie put on his guitar in the 40s during WWII. He was being an activist at the time and it became a pop-culture saying similar to seeing Kilroy at the time. There's actually other T-shirts on Ebay now and I think that it is more of a historical political nod than a call to action these days.

      I actually learned that it was a saying that Woody Guthrie made famous by putting it on his guitar in the 40s as an activist. It was similar to being Kilroy during the day (who was a bit of a 40s pop-icon so to speak). I'm sure that the saying hits differently today than it did then.

    You may have already heard, since I think you have family around the Jacksonville IL area; the Bins there are still closed. I just seen a FB post that they are still needing storm damage repairs done so the Bins can reopen.
    I haven't been to the Jacksonville bins in I think over a year or better. I had plans to drive down there the day before the 4th of July & luckily I seen a previous FB post that they had storm damage sometime around the end of June. So I was super bummed not to be able to go because it's been so long since I've been there.

    There are very few things I have seen over the years and even though i knew I could make a profit I didn't pick them up because they were against my morals and beliefs and for me. A quick sale is not worth going against my morals. My most recent was a book, that sold very well, lots of profit, It was not worth having in my home and distributing to others. I first started selling on Ebay in 2012 and this girl I was talking to at the time was giving me tips and pointers and other stuff. She was ordering (Rhymes with SCHMORN) magazines and videos by the pallet and was making thousands a month. Its not worth it to me. There is so much more AMAZING stuff to find out there each and everyday and I think thats what keeps me going just like everyone else. Love your videos, thank you for sharing!!!

    Feel like that sweater should have been left there, didn’t matter that it was handmade.

      As it turns out Woody Guthrie wrote it on his guitar in the 40s and was kind of an anti-war activist. There are T-shirts on Ebay already that have the same quote. It was a kind of pop-culture of the time, similar to Kilroy.

      Reminds me of the famous quote on the back of Mrs Trumps coat…doesn’t look very old was it a H&M or a similar retailer?

      @@jenaton5767it was actually handmade. You could tell from the seams on the inside and lack of tags. Great observation though

      Thanks! I actually learned that it was a statement that singer, Woody Guthrie put on his guitar in the 40s during WWII. He was being an activist at the time and it became a pop-culture saying similar to seeing Kilroy at the time. There's actually other T-shirts on Ebay now and I think that it is more of a historical political nod than a call to action these days.

    If you are having that kind of doubt and confusion about the the sweater, we’ll not the actual sweater, but the wording on it, I would have left it. Like you say, someone somewhere wouldn’t have a problem with wearing it, but I know I wouldn’t. Anything that gives you mixed vibes, I would steer clear of. That’s just my opinion, which you asked for your viewers opinions for the sweater. I, personally wouldn’t buy it, or wear it.

    Do research on listing the sweater and then jump off the cliff and just list it.

    Destroy the sweater. Message to kill never appropriate.

      I actually learned that it was a statement that singer, Woody Guthrie put on his guitar in the 40s during WWII. He was being an activist at the time and it became a pop-culture-type saying similar to seeing Kilroy (another icon) at the time. There's actually other T-shirts on Ebay now and I think that it is more of a historical political nod than a call to action these days. Obviously the saying hits different these days.
      This actually recently sold on Ebay. I tell you for how much in my latest video. Thanks for watching! Really appreciate the comment!

    The sweater is inferring that killing is okay. I may have gotten it to destroy it. I would not sell it even though I'm against fascism. I think ebay will not let you sell it there.

    Kristen, I pick up things like the sweater a lot. Anything that is odd and unusual will most likely sell! I like what I call oddities! Do your research if it doesn't pan out on line, take it with you to Junkstock!

    • @ARuralSquirrel
      @ARuralSquirrel  Рік тому +1

      Great idea!! I also thought about giving it to my friend Kris, who has the store and has been on some of my videos. His clientele would dig this kind of thing too.
