How Many of You Go to Local Antique, Collectible, Household Goods Auctions

[slidekellyslide]

I go to them as much as I can...aside from finding one or two items per year on ebay that fit my collection it's about the only way I can find Lincoln minor league memorabilia. For the most part people don't realize that these items have any value (Programs, photos, ticket stubs et cetera) or it's stuff they just don't ever want to part with so it goes to their estate sale when they pass away. I'm a regular with most local auction companies..so much so that they actually call me when they have something in an upcoming sale, and if I can't attend they allow me to leave a bid.

Just this past Summer I was able to pick up 9 Game Used bats from the 1950s Lincoln Chiefs club.

As far as cards and memorabilia that don't fit my collection I run across stuff like that occasionally, but I almost always buy it to flip it.
