Hey everyone! Welcome back to Thrift Picks, where I share my latest finds from my favorite secondhand spots. It’s been a while since I’ve stopped by Academy Records—it’s on 18th Street between 5th and 6th Avenue—and it never disappoints.

While their prices can be a bit higher than other spots, the treasures you find make it worth it.
