A few more carbooty prizes!! This one also came from the bootsale but I had to get rid when young nephews and neices started visiting, It was just too embarrassing, When I bought it I didn't even look at the subject matter on the pierced work, I sold it to Owne Bush over on BB...

Hi Deekin I struggle a bit with AF bins as my eyes aren't perfect, The slight difference from one eye to the other makes it a bit hard to focus through them! These are actually not as bad as others that i've had through the years, I had one set that I couldn't see through at all, They were...
