Where'd you find them, a flea market?

If you were looking for a vintage camera strap (read: leather, but cheap, or if not cheap then good patina) in/around NYC or Annandale-on-Husdon, where would you look?

YES FLEA... VINTAGE LEATHER CAMERA STRAPS ARE HARD TO FIND. THEY OFTEN DRY OUT CRACK AND BREAK. GO NEW OR TRY TO FIND DEAD STOCK.

Matt, you always find the best stuff. Those are incredible.

Lighters were much sought after by defense personnel in the United States and during World War I, demand for Zippos was so high that there were simply no Zippos available for civilians and all Zippos were made just for the military.
