Image Description
Over the years I get an email like I received from Barbara in Cheboygan , Michigan. Although sad, this is a part of life. I helped her in saling these models and have since been sold. Here is what she wrote to me:
Roger,
I am the executor of my brother?s estate and need to know how to market his tug boats. They have never been in the water as he was wheel chair bound and extremely afraid to go near the water. He paid a lot of money for these pieces and I am afraid we will never get out what he paid.
Mister Darby $2,500.00
YTL $1,500.00
Shellie Foss $2,000.00
Tami Mae $2,000.00 (this was named after a friends wife and I have no idea what the actual model is called) I believe the kits were from Dumas.
In researching this particular collection of his estate I find that the value is in the beholder. I believe it will be extremely hard to sell them and deliver them to the right collector. We will not be able to mail but will deliver to the buyer. Any help you might be able to offer would be greatly appreciated. I am a native Hoosier and my brother?s collection is located in Cheboygan , Michigan .
Barbara A. Lindquist
