One board member many, many years ago, professed he doesn't collect any of this stuff, he collects greenbacks.

I guess I will have to get some of my stuff graded at some point. My wife and daughter are well aware of that, and what I have. I don't have a lot, but some of it is worth serious money, Ruthian stuff at the top of the list. You are right. Some of these things make me an investor by default. But I am truly not in it for that.
