We have seen many historical items sold on ebay that go into private collectors hands were it is hidden from public display or hidden away. It is our hope to gather as much as possible to preserve for future historical data and make available for display to all interested individuals. If you have any items, including paperwork, photos, books, or other memorabilia and would like to see it preserved for others to enjoy please contact us. We understand that some photos hold personal value and would only request a chance to make copies to share. |
