Randomly awesome thrift store score.

[justzeg18]

Just shy of 3 square feet of Hall & Oates greatness.

go ahead, discuss your jealousy openly.

[Duncan]

Why, yes, as a matter of fact I am experiencing jealousy at the moment. Nice score.

[EMCE Hammer]

I'd settle for the 6" square with Oates' mustache.

[Mikey]

You're out of touch ---

[Werewolf]

That is actually kinda cool. Nice score.

The only thing I ever find at thrift stores is disappointment.

I think its a carnival prize

I had a Charlie Daniels Band one kind of like it.

i know what you're referencing, but this is almost 3 foot by 3 foot. I've had a ton of the small carnival mirrors, but I haven't seen anything this big outside of a music store display. did they give away "giant" carnival mirrors?

I'm sure it's not anything worth going nuts over, but seeing as how I was maybe 2 years old when it was made, and considering their musical standing, I see a certain camp value in a giant mirror of this type.

fun times.

Pretty cool. Congrats!

So it's kinda like my sofa sized stained glass window of the Spice Girls?

The amusment park I used to frequent, and later worked at, had a game that gave away 12" x 12" mirrors but nothing that big. They were all color too. Best one I ever got was the J Geils Freeze Frame album. I believe it's still at my Mom's house somewhere. I would have popped on that H and O mirror. Huge fan, seen em 4 or 5 times and always awesome.

If it's 3' x 3' it's most likely a promo ad piece for the LP. When I ran the music departments at both The Wiz and Circuit City they would send us posters and Lexan Light posters to put into light boxes. Still have a few I took home with me. Very cool piece. Depending on which chain store it came out of, most likely a Record World or Sam Goody's, you could be looking at maybe 200 - 300 run on those promo's of which maybe less than 50 survived. You have to remember record store stuff was destroyed after the promo period was over. I was supposed to throw the Lexan Light Posters away...but the collector in me just couldn't

H&O's Best of CD is in regular rotation in the family truckster. I need to get my hands on a DVD of them. I'm glad they've stayed together all this time.

Steve, do you have the German Import 2 CD set?? That's a greatest hits package.

[SlipperyLilSuckers]

So where are you going to put it up?

[Earth 2 Chris]

I think it's a law that you have to sing the chorus to "Private Eyes" every time you look in that mirror.

Certainly less disturbing than "You're a rich girl, and you've gone to far...".

Very cool piece. Possibly from their "Live from the Phantom Zone" album.

But seriously, nice find...at a thrift store! Odd.
