If I had space and money for collections of stuff - auto memoribilia
This auction has some cool stuff.
https://rmsothebys.com/en/auctions/MT20 I think mascots on OLD cars are cool, as well as the hub caps. This thing is full of a bunch of interesting stuff, photos, parts, motors, toys, pedal cars, gas pumps, etc....

One of the things that I occasionally do is peruse the Sotheby's car auctions. They often have high res photos of amazing cars. I've saved a few here and there, but it looks like they've started watermarking them.
There's some good stuff in this auction, including a bunch of micro cars, and various sports cars and other old interesting stuff. https://rmsothebys.com/en/auctions/el20

The elkhart auction was moved from last spring to this fall due to covid. There's a Devin-Triumph I have the hots for, in that lot. I'd kind of feel dirty for buying a criminal's car, haha

The goggles sign is probably one of the cooler things in the auction. They are estimating 10 to 15k on it which is way out of my art budget.
