Chris... Personally, I see the earlier stuff dying off, based on the aging population/dying. ( WAY fewer buyers who actually know what it is/remember them) Look at prices/market $$ of similar age cars and collectibles of this vintage. I'm in touch with antiques with a good friend that has an antique store over 35 years ( we are both into cars/all antiques for 40 years) and he is obviously seeing the same trend. If you want this for your collection, and "dig it"...ok, but as a flip or investment, I'd say nada. I'm not in this hobby or any related ( I collect toys and advertising, have a vintage car, bikes of course, nick knacks etc..) to "make money" but am starting to be more cautious in what I buy/sell. I'm usually broke, so buying is tough...ha!!!

Thanks Bob. Toc stuff has never tickled my fancy. I guess I'm a balooner for life. I posted it for my bay area brothers who may do that stuff. Cold one time almost here!!!!
