Somewhere on Havemeyer Street there is a 99 Cent Store with a furry helper protecting panties against theft— or so she claims!

Found On The Southside: Wheelchair

I happened upon this missive today at Wythe Avenue and South 4th Street. Truth be told, I am at a loss. In order for a wheelchair to be found one would presume it had to be lost/misplaced. Then again I have lived in north Brooklyn long enough to know better than to dwell too deeply on such matter. If anyone is missing a wheelchair (or needs one, I suppose) this good Samaritan has it and was kind enough to post flyers.

P.S.: While I am on the subject of Barbies, it would appear Huron Street’s bathing beauties have moved on (hopefully to the Nature Walk) or have gotten a “taker”.
