This is from both auctions this weekend. Got about half of all the railroad blueprints. Only got 3 cars. Most of the blueprints went choice so all the nice cars were taken for $10-15 each. Got the bottom of the pile that nobody searched for $0.50 each. Mostly train parts or logos and NKP lettering. Listed one on eBay to see if anyone's interested. Didn't get any of the railroad locks. There were a couple B&O railroad, but most were NKP locks. They all went $25-45 each. Wish I had bought a few now after looking up sold prices. Got some nice coins there too. The barber dime is really worn, but it appears to be 1895-P, a nice key date in any condition. A no date flying eagle and a handful of foreign for a few bucks too. A 1976 George Brett card, if only the centering was better would be worth so much more. There were 4 full books of stamps. 1 was US and the other 3 were world stamps. Didn't get the US stamps. Looked through it most appeared to be 1930s and newer. The 3 foreign stamp books are all in alphabetical order with at least 1 page of stamps from every country from 1890s-1990s. Probably close to a thousand or two in there. Spent 1-2 hours trying to look them up, but gave up half way through. Got a nice pile of records with some good titles. Most were all selling for $10-30 each. Got a nice Stanley No 5 plane, not pictured. Also got a large stack of 1910-1912 Kansas City Star newspapers, I think all front pages, and then 2 1898-1902 Kansas Geological Survey books. That's about all the cool stuff worth mentioning. Going to take a few days to get it sorted and listed. Thought I'd share the nice finds with you all, and thanks for the help on the railroad questions earlier this week.
