I must confess, I have been known to pick things out of the trash. I am actually a third generation trash picker. My grandpa is the first generation and he was mostly after scrap metal to use for welding. My father is the second generation and the best picker out of all of us. The things he finds are incredible. I don't have a car so sadly I have limitations but just look at what I found last week on trash day. I think the suitcase is from the forties and is in incredible shape except for a broken latch. Considering the age I think it has faired well. I have a collection of old suitcases that I started collecting when I was in high school. I love to decorate with them. They have an eclectic look and they are great storage when closet space is limited.
