My collection of show business memorabilia (books, photos, pressbooks), music (records, sheet music), movies (video tapes, DVD's), magazines and collectibles (souvenir programs, coffee mugs), has become far too difficult to maintain.  I am retired now and have begun to "downsize" the collection.  Thanks to eBay my items have been finding homes with people who appreicate the value of these items as collectibles and history and, for some, a means of maintaining memories of something special in their lives.

I have also begun to list items from my stamp collection.  Over the years as friends have moved away or passed away I have inherited items of no partiuclar interest to me.  Again, thanks to eBay these items are also finding good homes with appreciative buyers. It is gratifying to receive e-mails from buyers around the world telling me why they are pleased to have won the bidding on a particular item.
