People facinate me. I enjoy the dedication
they apply to their crafts. There's always
something interesting and I apply it to
my hobbies.

I don't need to see any more dream catchers, bird houses or refrigerator magnets.

Or demonstrations by the ShamWow guy.

We used to sell split white oak baskets at craft fairs in SW Missouri and SE Kansas as extra income back in the 1990s. Still have a few hundred of them in storage if anyone needs any.

LOL, those few hundred leftovers probably represent all the profit made!

Nixa, Missouri. 1940. The fellow looking at gloves is Shed Gooch. The guy with the cocked hat and grizzly jacket is Guy O'Neil. Floyd Wood is patiently awaiting a sale...or a refund...not sure which.

One for the jacket freaks too.

Like Al Capone..."bartender" also has a baseball bat under the counter which he uses with glee & ecstasy on cowpokes who get too rowdy.

Cool hat!

Looks like he tried to reshape the straw after it got soaked... and he did it by hand because he didn't have a proper block or anything. I agree, it's a fantastic hat!
