My Picks For Cool Tweets About Antique Treasure

My hunt for tweets about antique treasure was quite a hunt.

• I found items that I expected to be described as an antique treasure.
• I also found some things I didn’t know were considered antiques like cell phones and Neil Diamond. LOL.
• I found something I never expected to find.  A vampire hunting kit.

Did people really hunt for vampires? The answer is YES!

The part about vampire hunting is real. But!  Beware!  Not all vampire hunting kits are real!

Let me be clear.  I don’t believe in vampires.  But if I did … and I went hunting for one … I would definitely want to be sure that I didn’t have a fake kit!  LOL.

Today’s Morgan Library treasure is the sumptuous Carolingian binding of the Lindau Gospels.

The young beardless and triumphant Christ recalls late antique motifs pic.twitter.com/ajaspoGcDz
