If I had space and money for collections of stuff - auto memoribilia
 
This auction has some cool stuff.

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.

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

I think a bunch of this stuff is really cool

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.

my buddy collects signs from railroads, old fueling station stuff and other car/motorcycle related stuff and im amazed what he has paid for some of his collection. one authentic steel and porcelain texaco sign was 4 grand!!!
