>Markt der schönen Dinge – #977

>

Translates as ” The Market of Utterly Superfluous Tat Beautiful Things” and it runs for the 4 days from Ascension Day in the atrium and adjacent roads of the Lampenfabrik.

Some vaguely useful kit there – a blacksmith and a chappy who cuts shapes of of steel plate, but there’s a lot of stuff that a) I don’t understand, such as shapeless garments made of felt (top) b) expensive clothes which break the already broken budget (2nd from bottom) and other stuff where I don’t really want to ask vis a vis their true purpose.

At least Karin Schweikhardt got a decent suck of the straw….
