Do have a few trinkets from '84 - complete collection of the country and a double collection of the sports pins, one of the torches carried, just a few things

Lots more spread out through the entire family (another set of '32 medals, more pins from '84, etc), not a bit of it cost us a single cent. Grandma was secretary to the GM for the '32 games and helped coordinate the volunteer effort for the '84 games.
I have a bunch of unused '84 Olympics posters in Russian. They were never deployed as the Russians decided to boycott LA. I got them off a city/Olympics worker I met in Westwood during the games who was tired of carrying them. Think they're worth anything?
