I haven't seen a thread on items others have won... soooo I thought I would start one!

I just won this vintage Miyako Odori program from 1924.

I got it for around $5.00 :giggle:

You need to post all the pictures when you get it!

Do you think we should start a topic where people can put up their latest wins/purchases? I always like those.

I don't know if it has really any photo's in it. I have just always wanted a vintage program... and it was going cheap.

I think we just use this thread for recent wins and purchases also? What do you think?

Wow, that was a good buy with the miyako odori programme! It's survived in excellent condition.

I just won this dancing kimono from ichiroya's auction:

It's synthetic, but was only £15 and in good condition, as well as being vintage :)

That's beautiful! I love how bright it is ^^ That colour of teal is one of my favourite colours.

I just got it today- they're like a rubber transfer you get on t-shirts; it is modern and synthetic, but looks gorgeous. I had in on this morning with a nagoya obi (which I couldn't tie properly ;) )
