Let's give a big round of applause to the returning Midwest Scavenger! It's been awhile, but it's back today with some fantastic finds some of which are featured above. From "Giant Vintage Billboards" in Wisconsin to "Custom Made Modern Furniture" in Ohio, you're sure to find something that suits your needs. So click through to see what treasures await after the jump...




Thank you so much for doing a Scavenger post for the Midwest! I live in Lincoln, NE, too far away to pick up any of the drool-worthy items you post from any of the coastal cities you focus on--or from Chicago.

jd2- If you haven't already, swing by Nest... even when Lincoln's Craigslist is lacking (although it's picked up in the last year!), they're a great resource for great finds:

Ewilde- I did check Omaha, but many of the things I found were gone by the time I posted this listing, so I had to take them out and suppliment the list with more. There are usually some really great finds in Omaha.
If you think your city has great finds and isn't being represented on the list, let me know so I can check it out for the next Midwest Scavenger!
