I always look at the toys at the Goodwill thrift store.(I am going there
in about an hour) Sometimes I find one or two collectible toys and
sometimes new toys that I just happen to like and I buy them.I own a
bunch of old electric fans,some of them are large table models and some
of them are much smaller table models,one of them is a very old brass
blade rare electric fan and they all still work just fine too.Those new
electric fans made in China fans nowdays aren't worth a hoot.The big old
electric fan that I am useing on the end table by the other end of my
couch is an old Hunter electric fan,it stll runs just as good as brand
new.It was made in Memphis,Tennessee,I think it dates back to the
1940's.I own a few old collectible icecream scoops too.Some of my old
toys date back to around 1900 or not much later than that.I like to
collect all kinds of very old things.I have been collecting old things
since I was a boy,I just can't throw good junk away.Some of those
ebayers would have fit if they saw my old collectible things.There is
one elderly woman in paticular who sells old things at a fleamarket in
the Jackson area (there are a bunch of fleamarkets around here) and she
wants to tour inside of my house so bad and she wants to buy my old
things at cheap prices (my old radios too,, NO SALE!,Vicky,I dont get
rid of my old things!) she has a kaniption fit! My old house is so full
of things,it's pathetic.
