Default Todays DD Finds..

Hello all. Hit the Dumpster today for a Bit O dumpster Diving. There was a old suitcase and in it was these items plus a US Army ring that I gave to my uncle.

There is a money clip. A Waldman Wind Up Wrist Watch Inside Says Edward Waldman Swiss 1 Jewel. And a Broken 10K Italian Gold Chain. I was happy to say the least.

We live in an apartment complex on the SE side of Denver...and you'd be AMAZED at some of the stuff people throw away - especially if they're moving and just don't want to haul the stuff! I've seen complete brass beds (nice looking and complete) snow skis, furniture...in fact, I have a very nice 3-shelf bookcase in my office that I salvaged...looks brand new! I never thought of looking any deeper than what was actually on top of the heap - so to speak....but now that I've read this post, I'll have to keep my eyes open!
