things I am currently stalking on eBay out of homesickness and/or boredom




- "vintage" "rare" Chicago Cubs/Grateful Dead t-shirt
- a chipped coffee mug with a cartoon drawing of Wrigley Field
- "vintage" "rare" Japanese Ferris Bueller poster
- "vintage" NFL Chicago Bears beer glasses, very ugly (set of 4)
- "vintage" Sears Tower pencil sharpener
- "collector's item" Frank Lloyd Wright teapot
- exceptionally beautiful Art Institute of Chicago poster from the 1970s
- 1987 "Monsters of the Midway" paper beer coasters featuring a giant Chicago Bear climbing the John Hancock in the manner of Godzilla
and:
- Le Creuset dutch oven in Marseille Blue (which, I guess, is Cubs blue, too)



(This is a cry for help!)

  1. One of my favorite pastimes. Intrigued by the Frank Lloyd Wright teapot. I bought a matchbox from the old Imperial Hotel on there and I keep it in a shadow box on my dresser.

  2. Stalking 18th century prints of 17thC plagues is just so wrong right now and yet...

  3. You're inspiring me to go look for some Bauhaus artifacts or something. 1stDibs and Artsy are my vices. Chairish is quite good too. Anyone know where you can get a good vintage Eames lounge?
