The first things you pictured are leather gaskets for the pumps, not much use to collectors unless they are trying to make the pumps work. The second items are the wheels for the Veeder-Root computer, but from what I can observe there are from the later computers, and will not work in the computers used in the 30s, 40s and 50s. I have no idea what the "Shim Stock" is, the bottom of the package states "Gasket Co." and since most of us are not interested in making the pumps work, having the original gaskets are of little use. Not trying to discourage you, but how about some pictures of advertising items?

Thanks Jack for simplifying what is collectible..Oddly enough he had no advertising things.I guess it isn't too odd considering that he wasn't collecting souveneirs but just doing his job. I imagine all that stuff came from his shop.In regards to the wheels for the veeder root .There is a box of what appear to be older ones.The shim stock is a roll of thin brass. As I said the only thing with names (advertising items) are rulers and thermometers.There are a few nozzles but I have know idea for which tanks.
