Drove almost an hour each way yesterday to an estate sale because there was supposed to be sterling & the guy that runs it generally under prices flatware. As I walked inside I asked where the sterling was & the guy pointed me in the right direction. I was very disappointed to see just a few over priced pieces. Walked around the rest of the first floor & couldn't find a thing worth buying. Headed upstairs & things got considerably better.
First thing I saw was a gallon zip lock bag of baseball cards printed on cheap cardboard. I didn't have a clue but threw them in my bag anyway. Then I spotted a bunch of Nintendo stuff. The first lot had an original console, a few games, & what I thought was a super nintendo system that turned out to be an empty box. I turned around & spotted more on the opposite side of the room. Picked up another lot that had around 40 games with about half in original boxes. Right next to that was a power glove in the original box. I also picked up a few baggies with toys from the 80's. Found a box of jewelry in ziplock bags in a closet & scored a few pieces of sterling plus a bone or ivory elephant pendant with a 14k bail. Paid $73 for everything.
When I got home I looked up the baseball cards. Turns out they were from 1962 Post cereal boxes & there were 28 sheets plus 2 with football cards. Pics are of 2 random sheets. I'm stumped on what these toys are. Obviously weapons but no idea what they might go to. The ones that look white are actually chrome. Any hep would be appreciated.
