Pictures - I used to collect all sorts of things, and sometimes sell them on eBay.

I'll post some pictures from my pic file called "eBay".

Some items sold, some didn't. On some things, I pulled the listings because I could not bear to part with the items.

I collected coins, stamps, paper-based ephemera, and baseball cards (mainly 1967-1970), old currency, coins. I've also attended many hundreds of concerts and have a personal collection of ticket stubs.

I think I was offered $250 for this ticket stub, but I pulled the listing. This particular one will be worth thousands someday to the person who inherits this. This show has become so famous that the library of congress inducted this show into the national recording registry in 2011:



Another of my stubs:



More stuff:









My wife used to ride, these are her horse magazines that she sold:


Baseball cards!





Rose Bowl ticket:


JFK post card:


Old letters from the early 1900s:


More baseball:


You get the idea...I hope this is interesting to someone.

Still have some old Detroit Rock and Roll posters.
Everything is for sale, just somethings are priced very high.
It’s all just stuff.
My plan is to have the last check I ever write bounce.

It was attached to our house. My dad ripped off the front porch and built a store front.

Amazing what you learn over the years in a situation like that...talking to all of the customers and dealers that came in...

Good plan about your last check!
