The one that got away

On a recent alone-time thrifting session, I came across this cross-stitched captain.  I took a photo of it, and continued to look around the store. Lovely and enormously heavy, I didn't want to lug it around while looking for other stuff.

When I finished looking around the store, I came back to get it...and it was GONE!  Farewell my Captain, I hope we meet again.
