Have you seen these banana roller skates?

A new item in the Lost & Found section of Craigslist (thanks for letting us know, Gwynne!) ...
Dearest neighbors, I’m an idiot and left my roller skates outside in a Citibike basket at the intersection of East 7th and Ave C. They are banana yellow with mermaid scale tips, purple stoppers and pinky gummy wheels. PERFECT in every way. 

Did you find them? If I found them I’d probably take them as my own or sell them, but maybe you’re one of the rare goodies that took them to try to find their forgetful owner. If so, please advise! I miss them so much! 

I won’t pay you a million dollars for them, come on they’re mine, but I’ll give you something for your trouble.

Kamala lost the viola his father gave him more than 50 years ago



These flyers are up outside the Ottendorfer branch of the New York Public Library on Second Avenue near St. Mark's Place.

On Thursday, Kamala last the viola his father gave him before he turned 17. Kamala is now 70. He lost the viola, which is in a khaki canvas case, either at the Ottendorfer branch or the Sirovich Center on 12th Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue.

The viola has "purely sentimental value." Kamala is offering a $100 reward for its return. You can leave your contact info at the library or the front office at the Sirovich Center.

Consensus around the Park is that the sign is a fake.

Did you lose your keys yesterday during the East 9th Street Block Party?


If so, then you may be in luck. The folks from the 9th Street A-1 Block Association found a set near PS 122 at First Avenue. You can email this address with a description (there are several identifiable objects on the carabiner).

Family history found in free newspaper box



EVG contributor Derek Berg came across this scene earlier today on Second Avenue at East Fourth Street.

A man reached into one of the free newspaper boxes, and discovered two photo albums.



They were photos, which Derek estimated to be from the 1970s, from vacations as well as a wedding. The man who found the photos stood there with them, quietly studying each shot.

We don't know how the photo albums got into the box... or what became of them.

Updated 2:27

Derek had two more photos to share...

From the EV Grieve lost and found


Shawn Chittle spotted this at East 13th Street at First Avenue. Let me know if this stuff belongs to you. I actually took all the pills and am watching the Shirley Temple films. And I'm wearing the glove. And the lipstick. So. Maybe later.
