Popeye #929 Diggin Secondhand Finds

POPEYE magazine is the 'Magazine for City Boys'. The founders printed this on the cover of the magazine when it debuted in 1976. What's a 'city boy'? The term doesn't appear in the dictionary and no expert panel could define it. So we felt we should explore every aspect of what this 'city boy' might be. After decades of debate, it still makes for a topic of lively discussion. It can be a style or a way of thinking. To get an idea of what makes a city boy, read POPEYE magazine.

Popeye – Issue 929: Digging for Secondhand Finds

Why do people go out of their way to purchase secondhand goods? Naturally, there isn't just one answer. Some seek high-quality items at reasonable prices, others are drawn to unique designs or ideas that are rare in today’s world, or they appreciate the way textures evolve over time. In fact, ask ten people and you’ll get ten different reasons. However, what truly captivates us is the thrill of discovering a hidden gem amidst the clutter. There are untold stories behind items we don’t fully understand, we are fascinated by folk crafts from distant lands we've never visited, and we uncover the forgotten histories of familiar brands. It's these exciting experiences that pull us toward flea markets, secondhand shops, and recycling stores. If you haven’t yet experienced the joy of hunting for secondhand treasures, let me encourage you: why not give it a try?
