I had a pretty big collection of match box cars once. My mom said those are going to be worth something some day, but one by one I ended up losing or destroying them. Why oh why didn’t I listen?

We could each bend over and we can take turns kicking ourselves in the butt. I do have an old large Corgi model of the Jaguar from the later episodes of "The Saint." I've seen it go as high as 100 Pounds in the UK. BTW, I had the original GI Joe too so I deserve an extra kick.

Any household with a couple of boys in it during those years is usually good for as many as a dozen of those suckers in the yard when metal detecting. If I kept all of them (more often than not thrashed) I found I’d probably have a couple of 5 gallon buckets of them...
