Following is Week 3 of 4, and the next to the last listings of Bindlegrim's 2012 studio stock of vintage-style lanterns.  If you're looking for good Bindlegrim buys these just might be the 2 weeks to watch -- as I think things usually go for less on the tail end of an auction string...(?) and with some of the last of these being repeats, of final stock, a good deal could yet be had...!
