God Don't Make No Junk

Freezing cold and slightly hungover or not, digging through junk is a lovely way to spend a Sunday morning. As I mentioned in Friday's post, the first Brooklyn Flea was this weekend in Fort Greene, and while there were a few too many crafts and new products for my liking, all in all it shows a lot of promise. It's definitely the biggest market I've seen in New York and was packed to the hilt—Brownstoner estimates that 20,000 people showed up. It was a little chaotic and I didn't end up taking pictures, but here's a selection of the records I found (top to bottom, left to right, click to enlarge).
