Back in Austria

Waiting for the ferry to Devonport, we decided to enjoy a cocktail at “Traffic – Bar and Kitchen”, Auckland City a few days ago. Behind the seats we discovered a huge collection old National Geographic magazines. Nice part of interior.
I picked randomly one from the year 1959 just to run over the pages and to marvel at the great typography. There was an article about “Building a new Austria”–What are the odds!

I ask the boss of the bar, where he had got all these magazines from. He told me, that there is a shop in Auckland called “Trash palace” (Thanks again!).
The name of the shop hits the point, if you’re looking for all kind of old stuff, you’ll find it there. We bought the remaining few National Geographic magazines, although we didn’t know if we have even enough space in our backpacks…
