Every Sunday local Barceloneses flock to the Mercat de San Antoni where they sell heaps of used books, music, DVDs, action figures, trading cards, post cards, old newspapers, comic books, etc. It's always an experience going there because there are so many people in the market that you get "violated" from every direction. Every where you go is a bottleneck, but you can find some really neat things if you have the patience for it.
I got two old photographs at the market today. On the back of each tells a little story about them. The girl in the dress was taken in Paris and the dress was designed for the model by Jacques Heim in 1967. The other photo is of a rehearsal for the Queen's arrival in Nigeria in 1956.
Can you see Federico Garcia Lorca's La Casa de Bernarda Alba? Yeah, I have to read that for class.
