A few people have asked if I plan on selling the pictures of adorable dogs that I found at a sale recently, and I just wanted to let y'all know that if you’re interested in buying them, they’re all up on eBay now! I kept a couple of them, but for the most part, they’re up for auction so please bid away!

Fave Find: Vintage Dog Portraits
Last Friday (which we will wrap up shortly), Erin and I hit up a few sales. One of these was pretty far away–in Harrison Township, but I really wanted to go because it looked like there were tons of photographs there.
I wasn’t prepared for how cool some of these pictures were, though. It seems like one of the people who lived there must have been a photography hobbyist, because there were lots of 8x10s that were clearly made in a personal darkroom. I’ll talk more about the boolsheit I went through to obtain these photos, but for now, I just want you to enjoy them as much I have!
The first is a Rat Terrier and the second is a Dachsund. There were a few actual portraits like these, and then many action shots:
Do you like how the one is totally jumping off the other one’s head?
Here are some pics with their people:
And other beasts…
My favorites, though, are these:
And finally, my #1 favorite:
I’m not sure I’ve ever found an “old” thing that I love more than these pictures. I haven’t decided which I’m going to sell. I don’t need to keep them all, and they could, as I’ve found in the past, make me some money.
I’ll keep you all posted!
