<p>[QUOTE="Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 26773, member: 23"]I made a ton of money - slight exaggeration, but a LOT - on junk from the 40s-60s that my mother kept. Lots of paper ephemera that most people would discard. She kept every give-away with a business name on it - calendars, rulers, pins, fans, pens and pencils, whatever. All that advertising is gone and the stuff sells like hotcakes. I made more money selling things I could ship in small padded envelopes than I ever made on big, bulky stuff that I had to put in boxes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
