Brooklyn Flea

Stunned that no one found/wanted the stripey disco top. But a smart Singaporean found the label maker.

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

Alexis (left) was visiting from Singapore, wanted to hit the Fort Greene Flea, too tired after the long flight. Must've been fate, as she came to One Hanson in search of vintage clothes (easy) and a pink or cursive typewriter. She was in the Brady & Kowalski booth for the third time checking out their awesome vintage machines, and the Dymo mini LabelWriter caught her eye—the Hunt item from the website! She was totally psyched.

She's with Donna, who's half of Brady & Kowalski, the "writing machine" dynamic duo. They've got everything from powder-blue Italian '60s early electric typewriters to antique-style manual models to pretty writing paper and more. Their booth is always decked to the nines too. Donna adds her Re-Surface design line at One Hanson, which features funky stuff like microphone hanging lights and table lampshades made from Brooklyn graffiti photos. Super cool stuff.

Donna will be sharing a portion of her massive Dymo stash at a "Community Collections" exhibit in September at the venerable and worthy City Reliquary on Metropolitan Avenue in Williamsburg. Find her and Ms. Kowalski every Saturday in Fort Greene (W37) and every Sunday at One Hanson (#66).
