    Nice little strategy pulling the totes aside to avoid too much "competition" with other buyers. And you made some pretty nice finds, a little bit of everything. Keep it up, and I think that I found a little jackpot for you this weekend. This item contains everything you love: the historical background, the personal aspects, a complete set of ephemera, the photographs, the dates and the names. So, it should be quite easy for you to crawl into dozens of rabbit holes during your research. I´ve never seen a complete set like this before, so it might be unique. And the topic is: KdF ! 🤔 I assume I will get the package this week, and up it goes across the ocean ! 🌍Greets from GER, u.

      I am intrigued about this package! Hope that it's journey is calm! If I find a tote that I feel needs a bit more looking into, the pulling it aside method is my go-to. I pull it far enough away from the other totes that it would be fairly odd for someone to come up and just start digging in it while I'm looking. For the most part, shoppers know the "rules", but never hurts to have a bit more space to look around. Hope that you had a nice Monday!

    So many stories to go with the photos. So sad that everything has gone to cellphone photos. I know it is I guess better than more things in the landfill. So many people gone and probably forgotten by the younger generation. Most don’t have any idea of how these people changed their families lives good or bad. Sort of sad. I’m glad there is someone like you Renee to care about the beauty of these things. 🩷

      As for the old family photos I don’t think it’s that the family didn’t appreciate them, there were probably just too many to keep. My parents left over 10,000 photos which I am slowly sorting it’s overwhelming. So many of them are of people no one in the family knows who they are so what’s the point of keeping them. I also have very 100 reels of old movies from 16mm to 8mm to super 8, but no way of viewing them. It’s taken me almost 8 years to sort them and I’m still not done.

    • @PaperandMoose
      @PaperandMoose  2 месяца назад +4

      Are you able to send any of the reels off to have them digitized? I know there are companies online that do that, but also I have seen (in my area) some local small businesses that also transfer to digital. Not sure of the pricing for it, but if you have some old media that you know for sure you’d like to preserve, it might be something to look into.

    Loads of goodies! Send some of that good luck over the pond and up the Gulf Stream to me! I literally said, 'yoohoo!' when you showed that big box of photos. A few weeks ago, I found an old glass baby bottle from Germany. I don't know why I bought it. It was slim-pickings. It doesn't really fit with my lab glass collection and it isn't 'Scandi' so I won't sell it online. Some days, you just have to be prepared to walk away with nothing.

    Glad the Tote Man was back - I wonder how he turns all his stuff over every week? Or maybe he just has a very full warehouse and takes out 30-40 totes each week - and replenishes the empties over time. I agree with other commenters that the photos were the best find, but then, as you know, I really don't know much (other than what you've taught me) about post 1980s toys - or clothes from any era. I did a little reading about the Franklin-Meredith partnership but will leave that to you if you ever want to do a HBtP on it. I wonder if that plaque came from a museum. Thanks for a fun video, hope you have a great Monday, and even if you had put that Kermit thing in your mouth - it's good for the immune system :).

    • @PaperandMoose
      @PaperandMoose  2 месяца назад +1

      I did a little look about Franklin & Meredith as I was editing. "Meredith was seldom sober and did his work badly"... Where are the chairs?? I'll have to ask the Tote Man if amongst his totes there are some chairs that look antique. Can you imagine? Fortunately, the Tote Man does sell the majority of the inventory each week, so he comes home with little to sometimes none at the end of the market. He must be busy during the week to sort inventory and get ready! At first I thought the person was referring to when I smelled the scented hand sanitizer, but then when looking back at the video realized what they were referring to. Could be worse, I could be like some of the channels that eat food from the 1980s and earlier! It is interesting to see what food looks exactly the same even after so many years and also when they state that it doesn't taste bad...wow. Been sitting in a can for 32 years and can't even tell! (I will not be doing any of that on my channel haha!)
