All you need is a stamp… (EBay)

And, buy this:

I admire well engineered items like this but ya know I do not have the collecting gene. Try as I might it is not in me to collect stuff like this, or anything else for that matter. I know lots of folks who have curio cabinets or other collectibles and and there are a point of pride with them but I will never get it. My own mother collects little glass bells and other knick-knacks but I guess I am closer to a minimalist.

You could break them up and sell them individually. Probably make a few hundred over a year.

I used to buy sell and trade a few types of collectibles. I had to put most of it aside as it takes a lot of time and energy. I did just buy 2 nice T1s. Already caught myself making excuses why I had to keep both…

My kids are going to have one helluva an estate sale, when I’m dead…

I’m trying to save my kids some time and weed out as much as I can now. I’d inherited some china and tchotchkes from my dad who had them from his mother and a family friend. I picked a small selection to move to California. Sorted it out again in California. Now that it’s been over 5 years, I just did another sort yesterday, and got rid of another box-worth. It’s single pieces, not worth much if anything. I’m taking a bit of inspiration from Marie Kondo who says you should keep what “sparks joy” only. That’s definitely what I did. Keep the pieces that I really like not just because something is antique or inherited.

Now if I could only convince HWMBO from buying marginal tchotchkes from the local auction house….

I’m just one of those evil GIS people. Bwah-hah-hah! Seriously, I do coordinate systems and transformations at Esri.
