Catca16. Are you new to digging or new to posting. If you are new to digging, you are coming up with some awesome finds. The 'Wil Del' I believe stands for Wilmington, Delaware. Keep up the good work-I love your posts-although I am a little jealous.
I agree with ROBBY. I have sold a lot on line and I have a tall box and cover it with a sheet, the color depends on the color of your item, and then take a picture of just your item, or items in the case of a group. That way the prospective buyer can see your item without the background clutter...
I find price variations in a lot of the older items for sale. I have a signed print from 1930 and I have found prices ranging from several hundred dollars to less than a hundred. The same is true with some bears that I am trying to sell. But, catcat16, that is an awesome find. I have several in...

I would love to find a dump like that, not to mention all the other items that you found on your place. I hope you will continue to post your findings-we can enjoy them with you-kind of! I also hope that this adventure will spark in you an appreciation of our past. The love of the history...

I would give anything to stumble onto a find like that. I'd be like a kid in a candy store!! Keep posting your finds-we all can enjoy it with you-kind of. I hope this will create an interest in you for our past. These finds can be addicting.
