I think its ebay where the money is, the world wide audience and avid collectors who will pay over the nail for what they want. I have a matchbox (brass type material) at the minute circa 1920's with a hand painted greyhound/lurcher on front. Has the actual pull style matches still in the box that are familiar with that era. Id sell for the right price Quote Link to post Share on other sites
