Lost stamps near Pack Square, Asheville

I realized my stamp collection was missing after I left a little cafe near Pack Square Park around 7:15 pm last Tuesday. The envelope was a red, slightly worn album with a clear window, containing a mix of commemoratives from the 1930s and a few foreign issues. Losing them felt like losing a piece of my grandfather’s memory, because those stamps carried his stories. I’ve retraced steps along College Street and Biltmore Avenue, hoping a passerby found them and tucked them away somewhere safe.

Found sports equipment near Pack Square, Asheville

I'm Jamie Lee. I found a blue duffel bag of sports gear outside the Asheville Art Museum around 6:15 PM on Tuesday, near Pack Square Park. Inside are a neon green soccer ball, a basketball, a tennis racket, and a dusty gym bag with a name tag that reads 'A. Carter.' The zipper was half open and the gear looked recently dropped, as if someone paused for a moment and walked away. I left it where I found it, by the College Street entrance, hoping the owner will see this post.

Lost brooches in Asheville

I was wandering downtown Asheville near Pack Square Park around 11:15 a.m. on Wednesday when I realized my two brooches were missing from my coat pocket. One is a turquoise leaf, the other a tiny silver flower with delicate etching—my grandmother’s gift, and losing them hits harder than any trip ever could. I retraced steps past the Grove Arcade and along Church Street, asking the barista and the shopkeepers if anyone had seen them, but nothing turned up. If they’re found, I am hoping they are tucked away in a safe place waiting to come home.

Lost Lamps in downtown Asheville, NC

Late Friday night, around 9:15 p.m., I was at Pack Square Park in downtown Asheville, taking a break after a long drive. I set my two lamps down for a moment and turned my back to look something up, and when I looked back they were gone. They’re a slender brass table lamp with a dented base and a larger blue-glass shade lamp. I retraced my steps along Lexington Ave and past Battery Park Book Exchange, asking staff and strangers, but I didn’t turn them up. I’m hopeful someone who found them will see this post and help me get them back through the site.

Lost hand tools near Battery Park Book Exchange, Asheville

I lost a set of hand tools after finishing a quick repair outside the Battery Park Book Exchange around 7:15 p.m. yesterday. The bag contains a dented red toolbox, a hammer with a nicked claw, and three screwdrivers with green handles. I retraced steps along Wall Street and around Patton Avenue, but the tools didn’t show up. Those tools are essential for my small repair gigs, and I’m hoping someone picked them up or saw them lying nearby after sunset.
