Interesting. Someone is actually bidding. I wonder how many boxes of these I have seen at yard sales, in abandoned houses, on the curb, etc. I had no clue they were worth anything beyond the recycle value of the paper...next time I see some I will pick them up.

My reaction is exactly the same Todd, dunno how many thousands I've passed by for free or darn near free, with the assumption that they were about as valuable as a used and empty hamburger wrapper.

Pretty interesting. Thanks for sharing Sharon, and no offense intended. Most guys probably aren't into such things though I have found a few scarce vintage patterns for my mother and girlfriend that were valued highly by them. If it is your auction, I hope it does very well.
