Just awhile back I was talking to a friend that attends a lot of local auctions that on several occasions the (kids ) 40 years and younger have no interest in grandpa or dads stuff and only want the money . So sad . But I have also stopped and thought out of all my friends and people I know my age ( 42 ) how many collect this stuff or even have a interest in it . Not many , so it's kind of holding true. I had another collector friend tell me once he remembered when the old dark green electric pole insulators would fetch $ 10-20. Now no one hardly buys them . I will do as others have mentioned buy what I can afford and just enjoy it . I think Dave's jukebox comparison is proof as well . I don't even go to auctions anymore as you can't buy anything . Sooner or later I think it will slow down or I hope ... I have to many item I want lol.


I like SINCLAIR and old American made stuff ... No china items.
