Our very own Linda Blincko is in the New Zealand Herald talking about her latest Devonport op shop find and what was hiding inside it!
A brown suede coat discovered in a local op shop yielded an interesting piece of New Zealand history. A Devonport friend with a penchant for retro fashion tried on a stylish suede coat made in New Zealand under the long retired label Selby, an item of interest in itself. In the pocket she found a ticket to a rugby game, South Africa versus Auckland at Eden Park, dated Saturday, 5th September, 1981, one of 16 matches scheduled to be played around New Zealand. You can also read more about it on our Museum of the Vernacular blog!
