Looks like a great collection, I would hate to see it go. Are you keeping any of it at all? I know I would want to keep one or two small items or ones with a good story about how I got them.

Yes Wes, I'm keeping 3 globes, 2 signs, and a half-dozen cans. Plus, I gave my grandson 5 tin toy trucks/boxes he liked the best and one sign my son especially likes.

Wow Richard...I didn't think I'd see this auction coming for many years. I can't imagine getting rid of a collection that took so many years to build, but sometimes life has other plans and we go where it takes us. I wish you the best in your new home and the extra time you're going to get with the family being close together. This doesn't give me nearly the time to save up for your auction as I thought I'd have! Darin

Yea, what Scott said. What did you keep and why? This is something I often wonder about my collection. If I could only keep a few items which ones would they be? That was an amazing collection you had accumulated!
