Bernie's Comments

Bernie, thank you so much. I do appreciate your input. Judy

Another thought (since you are so willing to help). Ads from old magazines - do they sell, are they worth more than the magazine intact (i.e. WWII Life magazines)?

Read recently that greeting cards should be taken out of their envelopes. The envelope is the good part though. It shows the date, recipient, etc. What do you think? Thanks.

hi B
its only the Fam. journal folders witch are from mags, the other ones was sold as inspiration to interior painters and architects, some of them was also printed on stoc and cut out and sold in full size as stencils for interior painting
reg. Bjorn, sorry about my poor english

Bernie, you look like a collector who might be interested in some of the "stuff" we have. My problem is that we don't have a lot of any one thing. Moved out of the old house (100+ years) and found that David's family never threw out anything. So I have pieces of this and that. LOTS of cards, and LOTS of scraps of other types of paper. If you are not particularly interested in such an odd assortment, can you refer me to someone who might be? I just can't go through this piece by piece and try to find buyers for it all. I would like to have someone at least give me an idea of prices for cabinet cards, tintypes, cards, etc., etc. Thanks for any help. Judy

What is a Merchant bank? I have a few preprinted checks from places like Monkey Ward and another one that I can't remember at the moment. Is this what you mean? There is one entire year of household checks. The notations make them especially interesting - at least to me. These are from either the 20s or 30s, I believe. Thanks for commenting. I need all the help I can get.

Hi Bernie. I have been away for a bit, but no send you a belated Welcome to the community. Thanks for your comment on my blog I really appreciate it. Looking forward to getting to know more about you and your collecting.
