At times have used all of these with very good success and fast results for clearing the shelves, plus you'll get more people with an interest in what you have and not tie up this hist_list.
Good Luck.

Good point, you listed a few I have not tried before, thanks.
Hear your headin' out again according to the little gal that covers for you while your on the road - she said the islands south of Florida ? She mentioned something about looking at items from a sailing ship wreck, now what are you doing !

These lists really get attention, and they work; have listed items on Friday afternoon and am sold out by noon on Sunday. That's if it's not main events going on that has pulled many away from the lists.
Yea, headin' south for the Disneyland Cruise, Mrs. wanted to do that one, and I agreed if we could take a few days to visit Capt. John Abbott at his place in the Bamaha's and see his collection of recovered sailing ship items from the hey day of that period. Pretty good deal - she gets what she wants and I get to see the neat stuff from the old ships, looks like a win, win deal. Plus may get to kick one big fat mouse's ass on the way, never did like him - always bad mouthing the other characters, only kidding Dennis and Lanney - he's your hero.

If you're just intrested in Chittenden's information, not in getting an
origional copy, reprints are available from Amazon.Com for about $18 per
volume. Wife just got me Vol 2 to finish my set.
