Inherited antique treasure

Upvotes

What would be the best way to get rid of a entire collection of collectibles or try to find that one antique Roadshow precious Relic and open my own antique shop? There is everything to possibly collect from antique brass candle holders to Wicker and heavy wood furniture to antique mirrors Roseville vases clocks toys lamps old paintings records fine China. Every item i have looked up on Google lens has similar if not identical matches priced anywhere from a few hundred to tens of thousands of dollars. she hoarded for over 50 years and everything has been sitting around collecting dust and I

Know that alot of art works that nobody knew anything about 20 plus years ago become very sought after treasures and the amount of signed oil on canvas paintings I have something is going to be a home run.

It's usually hard for me to find anything sprite branded (i love to collect it) and this was like 8 bucks which i thought was odd because it's super solid and looks really good quality. What is this ?

What are souvenirs you hold dear?

Upvotes

I’m curious, what are some souvenirs you’ve held onto from traveling in or out of your home country?

I’m not talking about generic things like gift shop T-shirts, I mean REALLY niche things that you look at and immediately think back to your time there. Things that you could only find in that area or that resemble a deeper aspect of the culture.

I went on vacation and stumbled upon this collection of Chevron Cars, and I was looking through them and found Chandler Chip the ice cream truck, and I fell in love.

One of my dream jobs was and still is an ice cream man, and I was thinking about putting him on the dash of the truck or in my shop for display.

I also found this cool rubber alien. I believe he's from Mars supermarket(his name is Henley the Martian)

Is this a rare horse toy?

I might be dumb but I can’t really find anything on this toy horse from the enchanted kingdom line. I don’t have any accessories btw so I’m not sure of any specifics. I’m not going to sell it but I’m curious it’s rare!

I opened a series 1 and a series 2 getting two ironic and rare collectibles. The first was an Alexa Grasso card with a Valentina Shevchenko figure with their rivalry its funny that they were packaged together. But right after that I got hasbulla so its ok

I got this over the weekend from an antique store. I want to try to get it working. Anyone have any clue what type of battery this might need? The bulbs are 2.5 volt.

Japanese McDonald's Award?

Hopefully this is the right place to post this, but if not please point me in the correct direction!

I purchased this at a thrift store years ago, and was hoping someone had some info on it... The certificate/award is pretty self explanatory I guess, but I haven't been able to find anything remotely close to this online anywhere.

Not sure if a 2004 McDonald's Japan supplier award to "Bakery Chef" would even be worth anything to someone out there, but I thought it was cool nonetheless lol.

Thanks!
