The Seller
Some exhibitors at the Frühlingsfest fleamarket had tables bending under the weight of their offerings; others seemed to have brought along only a handful of random items from home. This exhibitor was one of the latter. As well as having little to sell, his stall was also on the edge of the market with much less passing traffic. His expression was stiking in its own right, but all the more so since it seemed so out of keeping with his cheery hat.06 July 2009
The Buyers
Every year Frühlingsfest - the Spring Festival -takes place at the Theresienwiese. It's a mini version of Oktoberfest with beer tents, funfair rides and fireworks.For one day only at the start of the Festival you can visit Bavaria's bigggest fleamarket with over 2,000 exhibitors selling everything imaginable. The most exotic item I saw on offer was a digeridoo.
These two were more interested in something a little more mundane - old vinyl LP's. They stood side by side, oblivious of each other and everything else, patiently searching through the thousands of records spread across this exhibitors table. I moved away before they did so I don't know if either of them ever found a bargain.
