Wa. State estate sale 7/11/15

#1

Post by Barry Travis »

Although it hardly qualifies as a "big" find,the story is pretty cool. A non-collector stopped at an estate sale in the last hour this past Saturday,and had a felling these cans might have some value,so he gambled on buying them.

His price? 65.00.

There were also some pulltabs and assorted recyclables,but the flats are something to behold,aren't they?

(No,I didn't buy them,so save the PM's)

Great buy Barry, PMs sent. LOL :razz:

Seriously, nice find of cans and thanks for sharing pictures. As an estate sale, I wonder what would have happened to the cans if someone hadn't stopped by to purchase? Guess would be some nice cans hitting land fill.

Wow! Those bock cans are awesome, as are the Hals, Dixie, and Seven Eleven - Century.

(the image of the cans didn't appear the first time I viewed this post)
