Hey sorry to hear you are forced to put up a bunch of beloved guns for sale. I know how it is. I've sold a lot of stuff off over the years I wish I had back, but family comes first.
 
I’m surprised the Smith-Corona didn’t go first/is still available. I also thought thought the bcd41 in .30/06 would go fast.

We’re in NH in the snow for a little antiquing as unbeknownst to us the Hall&Oats tickets we bought in July for this weekend we’re cancelled by Ticketmaster [angry2]

That stinks, it's almost like you need to hire Private Eyes in order to be kept in the loop.
 
Well, we went antiquing in our usual spots. Almost everything I saw last time was still there. Saw some nice small things, but obviously we’re being tight with the :emoji_dollar: .

I did make an offer on a small pocket watch ($125) which I figured I could afford as I am completing the sale of the musket tomorrow. Warranted 20 year case, popular Art Deco design, unusual Octagonal case. I collect and wear a pocket watch daily. Now that I’m retired, I use the small, lighter size 12.

1927, 17 jewel (ruby; 21 was railroad grade). Real little jewel chips were used in friction points to prevent wear. The more jewels, the better the watch (7, 11, 15, 17, 19, and 21); I’ve heard of 24 I think. Illinois Watch Company Was founded in Springfield Illinois in 1869 - town of Lincoln’s residence - and one of the founders was Lincoln’s former law partner John Stuart. Actually Illinois Watch was acquired by Hamilton Watch Company that year (1927), and continued to make watches until 1932 (we all know what was going on then).

Coin on my fob is a Roman denarius from 115BC.

If the rifle I’m sending out does not need much I might have to scrounge through what’s left
 
Adding a 1918 Colt M08 .25 vest pistol. Been my main carry piece for 3 years.

Managed to win a 1910 upgrade at Amoskeag.

Pics when I come home. Going to see “Overlord”
