One of the things we've enjoyed most about Paris over the years are the annual neighborhood flea market/yard sales that pop up here and there, now and then. We learned of the Rue due Commerce vide grenier at the Mouffetarde market some days before. Some of these affairs exclude the professional flea market types (they come anyway), and some invite them (for a price). This one, we judged, was about 50/50. It's the local folk and their yard sale items that interest us, of course. This one ran 6-8 blocks along Rue du Commerce, a major shopping street in the area, both sides, and pedestrianized for the event. A wonderful Sunday morning outing.

| Quite a collection it was; now being parted-out... |
