This past Sunday, I had the pleasure of attending my first antiques fair. It was a bright and sunny day, with temperatures reaching the high 70s, perfect for an afternoon strolling through a large naval base and scouring for one-of-a-kind vintage finds. The items ranged from typical costume jewelry and antique furniture to more unusual samurai swords and life-sized porcelain dolls. While I wasn't on the lookout for anything specific, there were a plethora of interesting items that caught my attention, some of which I managed to capture on camera. With over 800 booths and a beautiful scenic location in direct view of the Bay Bridge, there's sure to be something for everyone. Gently-used Keds:
