Ah, collectibles. I was thinking of the comment by Emile Belloc in "Raiders Of The Lost Ark" to Indy. "You take any $10.00 item bought from a street vendor, then bury it for 1000 years, then people like us will kill to own it."

That's a nice set, bet it's worth quite a bit to the right perspn.

For kicks do a search for old shotgun shell box collectors.
I did a couple years ago. Some boxes which I have a bunch of were listed at $55 each.

I also have a big OLD tackle box full of OLD lures.

It's amazing what some people will pay big bucks for.

Same goes for old powder cans.

Wish some interested buying would just come by and do the sorting, then just drop a nice check on the table so I don't have o do the digging.

Indeed! Several years ago at a gun show there was a guy selling old blue S+W boxes for around $100.00 + he was telling them!
