Original caption
Most vintage is found. Ours was forgotten. When my grandfather’s department store closed in 1992, the inventory didn’t get liquidated. It stayed, untouched, for decades. Three floors. Thousands of pieces. Still in their original boxes, packaging, and sometimes exactly where they were left. And the craziest part? We’re still discovering what’s in here. Welcome to the warehouse.
