I have that same book, also an ex-library copy. It’s in a box in storage… along with all my other books currently.

@Moriarity I wonder how many of those 8 tracks were purchased for a penny from Columbia House back in the day?
I’ll see your Felton, and raise you a Caary Jackson from 1957. :-)[ATTACH] [ATTACH]

@bowie I have no clue about the current market situation, but that yellow roadster is calling to me!
I used to have a pair of those Chrysler marine headers, looked identical to those, right down to the same patina. Always wondered if they would...
Picked these up the other day for what I think was a screaming good deal. Cities Service Oil bookends. Solid brass, about 3 pounds I think....
@The37Kid Found one on eBay. Says it’s a ‘46-‘47 Hudson. Thanks to @Harv for confirming my suspicions.
@chevy57dude Those originally came in cereal boxes, usually Wheaties. They made several different series of them. The first series in ‘53...

Picked these up in a box lot at the auction. Yes, I bought the whole box just for these. Ceramic feet, about 5 inches long. I know that they...
Not a recent acquisition, but one that I rediscovered today while looking for something else. I remember my Dad giving it to me as a kid, but...
