The Hunt must have been missed, as Scavengers struck early both days this weekend.

From left:
Rickey (right) rode his Vespa all the way down from Washington Heights on Saturday morning to find the Indian print block in—where else?—the My Little India booth. Rickey loves the Flea, first time at the bank, works for a church, braved chilly winds on his Vespa. Well done! Here he is with lovely Avian of MLI, which is upstairs on the mezzanine in #73 every weekend, under the insane giant stained-glass windows. They bring everything from hand-dyed soft cotton comforters and pillows to Avian's handmade leather bags to unique wooden furniture and unique items like Rickey's new print block.

First-time Fleaster Alisha (right) ventured to Brooklyn from the East Village Sunday and stumbled upon the glow in the dark undies—for men. She said she's gonna wear 'em herself; we'll leave that one alone. Jamie Xmas of Antique Wardrobe was harboring the vintage Day-Glo thong in booth #1, where he holds court with the coolest old-time vintage clothes and tchotchkes, displayed with a sense of whimsy. Not your run of the mill duds with Jamie, he's a total pro.

Check back at noon Friday for this weekend's items.
