Business Dead People’s Furniture
posted by on May 7 at 10:55 AM
I am completely smitten with this new Olive Way vintage store, the Anne Bonny:
The shop is operated by this kindly retired fisherman, who is reportedly quite adept at singing chanteys and bawdy songs:
Capt. Moody’s wares include ugly lamps, taxidermy forms, and “dead people’s furniture.” He also has some old records lying around; last week, I found a copy of the dreaded physical fitness anthem “Chicken Fat.” Oh, and the collection of clown paintings is world class. This is my favorite:
Is it just me, or does the subject bear a terrifying resemblance to Roy Wood of Wizzard?
All those men are actually pics of Bob Ross in different phases of his life.

Thanks Kurt, I'll swing by Anne Bonny after I get back from a California Ave. thrift place. It's funky and has a NW Indian theme, Manny's I think is the name.
It is a great spot with some cool treasures. Kudos to people doing things other than sit on a bar stool.
Just so you don't make an extra trip: The Anne Bonny is closed Mondays. Open noon to 7 PM Tues thru Sun.
Don't forget to go peek at the art gallery area upstairs!
