Now that's Vintage, only $15k(so far)

This old pair of LEVIS were found in a mine in the Rand Mining District, on the Mojave Desert,. California. They are covered in candlewax from the candles the miner was using to light the tunnel he was working in. They were found with and old paper bag with the name of a mercantile store which operated between 1895 and 1898 in the town or Randsburg. Their was also a gunny sack with the initials A.P.K. and Randsburg marked on it. A.P.K. is through to be Adam P. Kuffel who was a partner in the mercantile store.

look closely at the label

"every garment guaranteed"
and it's lasted 110 years so far

do they still make the 201?

Unfortunately no but they don't look like a particular flattering cut though.

Apparently the last pair that came on the market sold for $33k

Damn that's brilliant. I believe Levi's pays the most for these things as they have a museum for them?

wow!

EDIT: By the by, the Vintage Levi Jeans went for US $36,099.00
Since I'm not topping yesterday for a while here's today's

The vintage bird collection, designed by Jim Mullan, was inspired by his fascination with birds and antique objects. The crows were used as hunting decoys in the 30s and 40s and the smaller birds were carved in the 1950s. The original decoys were passed on to Jim in 1991 and just recently he has turned each into an eclectic, one of a kind piece of art. You can see Jims lively sense of humor in each one of his creations.

Google Maps Australia now has street view.
You can see your house (for most places) or just try and see if you recognise anyone in the pictures.
Some of the pictures are reasonably new (I'm guessing the one of my parent's house was taken 3-6 months ago and the one of my apartment about 3 months ago)
Enjoy. I had stop stop after 10 minutes. This post is my break for the day.
