The two hot dudes from Manly Vintage will be pushing vintage goods this Saturday at the Heaven Gallery in Wicker Park...wait a minute...THAT'S US! Come on by and buy some antique razors, throw some high fives, and step outside with us for a smoke.

We're gonna be trying some crazy new ideas this time around, our first vintage market experience at the Vintage Bazaar was somewhat of a serious systems malfunction, so we're doing things different, LIKE HAVING PRICE TAGS! I'm also setting up at home beforehand so I don't have full boxes of crap underneath the tables, and I will eat breakfast and have coffee before I head out Saturday. Did I say crap? I meant recycled treasures. ha.

When: Sat July 3rd, noon-6 p.m.
Where: Heaven Gallery, 1550 N. Milwaukee Ave., b/t Damen Ave. & Honore St. Info online at vintageheavenchicago.blogspot.com.
What: Our booth will consist of mostly pre-1960s, barware, home decor, some depression glass, lamps, razors, and household items.
