A Good Morning...
There was an estate sale 10 minutes away and I saw they had a 45 or 46 star flag, so I decided to check it out. I got there 5 minutes before they opened and was #6 in Line.
The woman in front of me walked right to the flag and picked it up.
She quickly set it aside, so she could look at a blanket. I would have paid more than $10, but I didn't have to!
I looked in their jewelry/smalls case before I cashed out and found this:
I would have paid a lot more for the Marble's Fish knife too. I feel like I should buy a lottery ticket this afternoon!

46 star flags from July 4,1908 to July 3, 1912. Oklahoma is the 46th state.
I would have been all over that too.
