[SEL] Hello again everyone

[Bob Jacobs]

Yeppers,  should be one heck of a sale.  I've no idea of what will get dug
out of the raftures up there.

I know they hoarded stuff for years.  There should even be some steam
whistles and various other steam items as dad used to have a Nichols &
Shepard engine too.

The good/bad part of it is that it's not going to be an auction.  Just
setting it all up for sale with fixed? prices.  I'm sure there will be some
negotiation on pricing but she says everything will simply be priced and
ready to go.  If you want to get top choice it looks like you'll have to be
there for the first day.  The nice thing is I'll know the dates before they
get published anywhere else therefore you all will also know them.  (I
believe my friends should have the first heads up  LOL)

Having just spent 5 days up north with my Mom I got some startling news.
 
She and my Dad collected everything antique for many many years, now
at the age of 83 she's decided to hold a sale and get rid of much of the
collections.  (Dad passed away 16 years ago today).
 
If the ladies like antique dolls, china, furniture, and about anything else
"household" there will be lots for them to see and, of course, buy.
 
For us old iron people,  the specialty of the house is International
Harvester.
Dad was an IH dealer for 20 years or so and never threw anything away.
There is literally tons of literature on old IH equipment.  Parts manuals,
Shop
manuals, advertising slicks, posters and you name it.  All is in "NEW"
condition!!
 
In digging through stuff this past weekend I came across a brand new head
for
the LA engine and the LB engine,  there is also a brand new head for the
Farmall F-12 in the garage.  Too much stuff to remember it all but sometime
in the spring (when the final dates are set) I'll let you all know if you're
at all
interested.
