[QUOTE="hiho, post: 982279, member: 21869"]If I saw them first I would have definitely grabbed them without a second thought. My wife was walking home from the Post Office one day last summer and spotted about two dozen framed art prints left stacked next to a dumpster. Someone had moved (or more likely gone to a nursing home) and just threw them out. She was an art student and spotted a couple of known artists. She ran half a mile home, got the car and went back. A few were already gone but she took the rest. They had a value of over $16000 and I believe she realized about half of that. Our son was angry because he worked all summer long as a lifeguard and in one day she made as much as he did. Imagine that![/QUOTE]
