The Antiques Show

"Excuse me, do you work here?"

"Yes, I do."

"I would like some information."

"How can I help you?"

"What are these?"

"Drumsticks."

"I mean, why are these five times more expensive than new ones? This is a second-hand store, no?"

"Ah! That's because Led Zeppelin's Jon Bonham used these sticks while recording ‘Stairway to Heaven’."

"If I understand correctly, this is actually a bargain..."

"I think so too."

"Can you pack them for me?"

"Of course. But if you have a moment, I also have the guitar pick here somewhere Jimi Hendrix played with at Woodstock."

"Do you really?"From Guest Contributor Hervé Suys
