A small one but happy with the results. This was in a free box along with some other brochures for different places. A 1909 yearbook sold for $14 shipped. Took a couple months but it's headed out now.

Nice little freebie. Pure profit. I've noticed most estate sales around here contain very little in the way of ephemera of any kind usually. I think most of it hits the dumpster instead beforehand. I know I've personally rescued many paper items (among other things) over the years from the trash at estate sales.

Things to think about while out and about.

You're the reason I look for paper things. I remember some of the things you've posted on here have gone for good money. So that's one thing I put on my list to look for if there's no gold or silver, sunglasses and old papers!

Speaking of old papers I did not sell these but I looked them up old vintage toilet paper. This is what one stack sold for.



Followed by old toilet paper holder. Crazy!

I knew about the Charmin but not the San-O-La name brand. Filed away now for future reference.

This was a dollar this weekend. I actually almost passed on it went looked it up, and ran back to the table. I don't know why I was being so stingy on a dollar but KJL were the letters.

Very cool! I have been trying to branch into costume jewelry because the supply of fine jewelry is so tight up here. I focus on sterling and I may only find 1 or two good pieces a week. But walk into any thrift and there hundreds of pieces of costume. Any thing that helps me weed through the worthless helps; you just showed me something new to look for.

Got both for free trash picking. Got $50 for both. Could have got more, but I can't complain!

Nice rare OA flap. It's referred to as a "first flap", basically it's the lodge's first flat shaped patch. 388 Samson Occum was chartered in 1948. I'm sure you were quite surprised and doing the happy dance when that ended lol.

Future reference just in case- http://www.oaimages.com/index.shtml

Wish I found a boy scout patch...
