Nerds Shall Inherit the Earth

I shop at thrift stores a lot.  Really, a lot.  Clothes, books, decor items, cookware, raw materials for my shop; most of the goods I buy come from second hand shops.  This is partly because I am cheap and refuse to pay full price for new when perfectly serviceable things are available used.  Mostly, however, I shop at thrift stores because they can offer some hidden gems found nowhere else.

Sometimes these gems are beautiful and unique vintage clothing, or really high quality kitchenware for a bargain, and sometimes the value of a find is because it is incredibly nerdy:



R2-D2 thermos, Dr. Strange wall art, and Humphrey Bogart on a necktie; how much more cinema nerdy can you get?

Don't worry fantasy fans, I didn't forget you:

 


Medieval castle rubbings ready to hang in your dungeon/gaming cave, and yes that is a fully functioning water pitcher shaped like a dragon.
