Sack Socks
Description: My mother-in-law often talked about how her father was a big farmer on Long Island, but it sounded like one of those classic inflate-the-truth stories we all tell. Years later, I found this potato sack with her father's name in a history exhibit of the Island with a placard that confirmed her story. So I photographed the sack and reproduced it here to give the fam some XMas gifts.
Description: A footbag is a small, round bag usually filled with plastic pellets or sand, which is kicked into the air as part of a competitive game or as a display of dexterity. "Hacky Sack" is the name of a brand of footbag popular in the 1970s. The current Western incarnation of the sport was invented in Oregon USA. Featuring bright colors to give you that 70s 80s retro vibe.
