I have been cleaning out a new purchase . Found some cool stuff .   I have an original window sticker for a 1963 VW bug for $1810 . Some  Barry Goldwater for president bumper stickers . A dozen pocket watches , gold and silver without any movements in them .  Three WW2  medals in the box  for the pacific theater . A real old clothes iron .  A bunch of jewelers tools and watch repair parts .  Bamboo canes . And a notice from the county about them installing water in the community . Total cost for a 120 home community was $ 37,890 . And $ 160 to hook up .   ( Today 100 ft of mainline would be more than that and they want $ 7000 to hook up )   I am giving that notice to my civil engineer for his office )   .     And  last was a old bug sprayer  made by ESSO  ( exxon today )  It was used to spray  DDT .  ( thats not coming home ) .
